Delta County Softball Teams End Regular Season
The high school softball regular season came to an end Thursday night for the Escanaba Eskymos, Gladstone Braves, and Rapid River Rockets. The results: ESCANABA vs MARQUETTE---It was Senior Night for the Eskymos in their final regular season games. Marquette won the first game of the doubleheader, 3-0, and Escanaba won the nightcap, 12-2, in six innings. The girls honored Todd Milkiewecz, a longtime local softball supporter who is dealing with cancer. He was the honorary third base coach in the second game of the doubleheader, and the Escanaba girls wore green shirts to show their support (pictured above). The EHS seniors are pictured below. Thanks to Deb Leisner for the photos. GLADSTONE vs KINGSFORD---The wind was blowing out in Gladstone as the Braves split a doubleheader against the Kingsford Flivvers. Lexi Hongisto hit a pair of two-run homers in the first game, but Gladstone lost, 6-5. In the second game, Alyssa Polley hit a three-run homer as the Braves outslugged the Flivvers, 9-7. RAPID RIVER vs SUPERIOR CENTRAL---The Rockets beat the Cougars in a pair of mercy shortened games. The first game wass 17-0 in three innings, and the second game was 10-0 in five innings. Erica Schwartz threw both games in the circle, and she threw perfect games in both. She faced 24 batters in both games combined, and retired them all. She struck out 18 of those batters. Only six SC batters hit the ball, either grounding out or popping up. MORE SOFTBALL RESULTS: Negaunee and Norway split a doubleheader. The Miners won the first game, 7-3. The Knights took the nightcap, 8-4. |
