It was a clinic on Monday night as our Lady Falcons took to the field against last year's KingCo 4A Champs Redmond on their home field.  Needless to say our girls came ready to make a statement each inning on both offense and defense.  Though Redmond lost key pitching from last year they were only able to muster one run on two hits over a shortened 5 inning run rule where the Lady Falcons pounded 17 runs on 15 hits where many went for extras.

Alyssa O'Farrell and Taylor Rhinehart went yard for homers, Skylar Hein had two doubles and 2 RBI's in a 3 hit night, Alena Jones went 2 for 2 with a double, 3 RBI's, 3 Runs and 2 base on balls, Nicole Shavlik went 3 for 5 with a double and an RBI.  Taylor finished with 4RBI's on the night.

Lauryn Rhinehart baffled Redmond hitters all night with a mix of speed and location.  Striking out 9 through 5 innings of marvelous work while only giving up two hits...she is just getting stronger and stronger as the season goes on.  Defense behind here was again rock solid as well.

Our Lady Falcons have broken the top ten in the Nation by MaxPreps jumping 59 spots from last week to #9.  They have taken the top spot in Washington State 4A rankings as well.

The Knights came to town looking for a little rumble and they found the Falcons full of fight last night. 19 hits with 3 home runs, balls to the fences and lots of awesome defense. Olivia pitched a complete game, allowing only two runs on this parent night.

It was a very tense game 0-0 through 3. Then Kat got an RBI in the top of the 4th, Alyssa homered in the 5th, then the Falcons broke it open in the 6th with a hit parade, scoring 6 runs. then the defense held for another two innings, and no Wolves crossed home plate. Nice pitching Lauryn, three sweet catches by JB in left, and a nice double play from Kat to Alena covering first. Newport on Wednesday Falcon Fans!

Taylor came up with a low hit gem, backed up with some very solid defense from the outies, JB right up to the fence, with Nicole and Katie picking up a couple of catches on the run each. Nicole got on base and scored twice, and Alyssa continued blistering the ball with a two run double, and we finished with a 4-1 victory. Regular season starts in ernest Monday at Eastlake at 4pm.
