WHITE SWAN – The Dayton girls' softball team took advantage of 13 White Swan errors in two five-inning games to overwhelm the home team in a double-header on Saturday, 17-1 and 12-1.

In game one, Megan Robins went three-for-four and knocked in five RBIs to lead her team. Heidi Dobbs and Scully Castorena each had two hits.

Robins had a strong game on the mound as well, giving up only three White Swan hits. On defense, Dayton played errorless ball.

In game two, Castorena went three-for-four, while Hannah Becker, Kaleigh White, and Kylee Laughlin each had two hits.

Pitcher Savannah McFarland gave up four hits, while the Dayton defense committed only one error.

"Dayton consistently put runs on the board, scoring in four of five innings in each game," said Assistant Coach Desirae Jones. "We had just one miscue on defense, behind solid pitching from Megan and Savannah."

The Lady Bulldogs are now 8-4 in league play, and 11-6 overall. The team was to travel to Liberty Christian on Tuesday for a double-header, in their final regular season games.
