Elks 13, Hyaks 5

OCEAN SHORES — Lake Quinault secured its first win of the season by staying patient at the plate to knock off North Beach in a non-league contest on Monday afternoon.

The Elks parlayed 13 walks from the Hyaks’ pitchers into runs, with starting pitcher Anthony DeMarco slugging two hits and two RBI. North Beach used five pitchers in the contest.

“They threw a lot of younger kids and they had some control problems,” Quinault head coach Keith Samplawski said. “That’s something we’ve dealt with in the past. Our kids were able to keep their control, especially with the weather conditions at the end of the game.”

Samplawski cited Allen Espinoza for his 4-for-4 on-base percentage and three runs scored and David DeLaCruz for his work behind the plate.

Today, Lake Quinault travels to Mary M. Knight in a Coastal 1B League doubleheader.

Bulldogs JV 3, Wildcats 1

WESTPORT — Mason Lutz went five innings for Montesano’s junior varsity team as the Bulldogs shut down Ocosta in this non-league contest on Monday at GAR Park.

Lutz struck out five and walked five in five innings of work for the win. Mathew Hart took the loss for Ocosta, which put five pitchers on the mound with games coming up later this week.

“It was cold; it was raining, but we got the game in,” Ocosta head coach Mike Allton said. “We left a lot of men on base again, so we need to pick it up at the plate.”

Today, Ocosta will host Chief Leschi in a doubleheader.

Indians sweep Warriors

TACOMA — Chloe Sawyer and Alise Rohr threw a one-hitter and a two-hitter, respectively, in two four-inning games to sweep host Chief Leschi, 12-7 and 12-4, on Monday afternoon.

Sawyer struck out six, walked three and hit seven batters for South Bend (2-1), which won its first doubleheader sweep in program history. Sawyer also hit an inside-the-park home run amongst her three hits and three RBI at the plate. Rohr also had an inside-the-park home run in the opener.

In the nightcap, Rohr struck out three, walked seven and hit four batters in the circle, but scattered two hits. Sawyer and Caitlyne Bradley each had three hits, including a double, at the plate.

Ocosta slugged 10 hits in the five-inning, mercy rule win, with Erika Snider, Kaylee Barnum and Evalyn Marsh each driving in two runs.

“The girls are being patient at the plate,” Ocosta head coach Jason Barnum said. “Fletcher and Snider have been throwing the ball really well. There’s good pace behind the ball and we haven’t had to make too many plays behind them.”

Bobcats 91, T-Birds 41

At Grays Harbor Country Club, Mari Rabung, Kate Slyter and Ryder Heikkila each finished with 19s to share medalist honors in Aberdeen’s Evergreen 2A League match win over Tumwater on Monday.

Playing within the Stableford Scoring System, the Bobcats all cracked 10 points, led by the medalist trio.

“It was a soggy, rainy, and windy round of golf,” AHS head coach Dan Sundstrom said. “No real sane person should have been golfing today. With those conditions, it was nice to see three girls with scores of 19. We did have a team goal to reach 100 and it was within reach.”

On April 10, Aberdeen returns to action against Hoquiam.

Aberdeen (91) — Mari Rabung 19, Haley Farrer 16, Emily May 18, Kate Slyter 19, Ryder Heikkila 19, Adri Roberts 14.
