In our 2013 home opener, the Lady Falcons Fastpitch had their hands full with a tough Todd Beamer team that came to play.  After struggling with a over-generous strike zone and un-characteristic defensive errors our girls were able to squeak out a win 3-2.

Experience was the storyline in this game for the Falcons with Madi Schreyer punching out 14 batters and going deep for her 3rd home run of the season.  Senior Emily Jackson got things going after the Falcons going through the order without a run on the board.  In her 2nd at bat she took the wide-strike-zone into her own hands ripping a high fast ball off the Beamer 3rd baseman for a leadoff double.  Emily then stole third and stole home to get the Falcons off to a 1-0 lead.

Beamer fought back putting a run up in the top of the 3rd which the Lady Falcs answered to in the bottom with a leadoff triple by Junior Tori Lettus and then a 2 run home run by Madi Schreyer to put the Lady Falcons up 3-1.

Beamer put another run up and runners on the bases a number of other times during the game but Madi just cranked it up a notch and sat them down by either a strike out or a lazy ground out.

Girls are at home on Friday against Everett for another non-conference challenge.
