ALLENDALE HIGH SCHOOL: 1
Dux took the lead in the bottom of the first with great base running. Carly Sleeman started the game with a single and put herself in scoring position by stealing second and third while Emily Kragt was in the box. Kragt was walked and as she went directly to second, Sleeman capitalized and stole home.
Allendale tied the game in the top of the second. Dux responded and took the lead for good in the bottom of the fourth scoring two runs. With two outs Alexa Brott hit a single. Maddie Wyckoff came up and hit a double down the left field line scoring Brott. Emily Brands followed and singled to score Wyckoff. Dux added to their lead in the fifth when Sleeman doubled. Taylor Zwagerman singled to score Sleeman.
They were not done there. The Dux scored two more in the sixth when Wyckoff singled to start the bottom of the sixth. Brands came up and homered to left field to put the Dux up 6-1 which would be the final score.
Sleeman, Wyckoff, and Brands had two hits. Zwagerman and Brott each added a hit in the victory.
Alexa Brott got the win on the mound. She threw seven innings allowing one unearned run on four hits, striking out ten and walking zero. "Alexa was really good on the mound. It's great when she has the support of the bats as it fuels her and the teams' momentum!" said coach Sliva. "The girls played for one another and put a full team effort to win this game. They were fired up from the first pitch to the final out."
Dux improved to 9-3 on the season and face 2021 Conference Co-Champs Wyoming on Tuesday at home at 4:15 for a double header.
