JCHS rebounds vs. Knights (04/20/07)

Baseball/softball roundup

OSSIAN - It's been a good week for the Patriots to bounce back on the diamond.

The JCHS baseball team recovered for a victory Wednesday over Wayne, just a day after being run-ruled by the Class 3A No. 3 Norwell Knights. Jay County's softball team followed that lead Thursday, rebounding after being no-hit Wednesday at Huntington North for an 11-0, five-inning domination of host Norwell.

The Patriots (3-3) had just a 1-0 lead through three innings before exploding for four runs in the fourth inning and six more in the fifth.

Freshman Pazia Speed continued her hot hitting to lead JCHS, finishing 2-for-2 with two doubles, three runs and two RBIs. Senior Ashley Bunch also had two hits to go with a run and an RBI, and freshman Lindsey Wellman had a double, a run and an RBI.

Shae Keller earned her second victory of the year, shutting out the Knights (2-2) on four hits and one walk. She struck out three batters.

Jay County lost the junior varsity contest 4-1. Caitlin Gilbert and Shelby Gierhart each had two hits.
