The diamond sport dominated this week's athletes of the week post. Below you'll find the top performances of last week in baseball and softball, though several athletic events were considered. All of the athletes had stellar days, but which performance should be rated as No. 1? Take a look and let me know at cbreakey@chronline.com.
JERAMEY PROBERT, Centralia College baseball — Probert homered twice in Centralia College’s doubleheader with Grays Harbor Monday of last week at Ed Wheeler Field as the Blazers picked up their first win while splitting with the Chokers.
JOSE ORTIZ, Rochester baseball — The Warriors’ No. 9 hitter Ortiz recorded half of Rochester’s hits, going 4 for 4 with two runs scored — including the winning run — in the Warriors’ 5-4 win over Naches Tuesday of last week.
JESSICA HAUNREITER, TIFFANY MORRISSEY and BRETTE STRODEMIER, Centralia College softball — The three Blazers combined to go 10 for 12 at the plate with eight RBIs during the Blazers’ sweep of Grays Harbor Tuesday of last week.
TIA BRADLEY, W.F. West softball — Bradley came up with the big play of the day for the Bearcats Thursday of last week. With a runner on first, an Aberdeen batter hit one toward the right field foul line. Bradley, the right fielder, charged after it and dove head first, hitting the ground as her momentum forced her into a roll. She then popped up with the ball in the glove. “Spectacular play,” W.F. West coach Mike Keen said. “She caught it right off her shoe tops.”
PETER WAGNER (pictured above) and BRYAN LININGER, Adna baseball — The two Pirates combined for five hits and a home run apiece — Wagner’s being a grand slam — and 10 RBIs for Adna in a sweep over Morton Friday of last week.

I believe that the name should be Tiffany Morrissey, a graduate of Centralia High School
Thank you, anonymous. Got it.
I appreciate the good eye!
To bad bryan linger couldn't stay eligiable...
Eligibility problems are a real bummer, and I’m not talking about a kid not being able to play ball. The world needs more kids to pull a Nikk Resutek.
Resutek is a wrestler at Tenino. He used to get horrible grades, even though he admitted the home work and tests were not hard … at all. He just didn’t do the work.
But he changed, and now he’s getting Bs and As. I wish the same on every kid having trouble in the classroom.
thats one thing that drives me nuts about this newspaper. There are a lot of kids in a lot of DIFFERENT schools that work hard, but just because their not from adna there not even looked at. I know of some kids who did work hard to get good grades this year that are doing real well in baseball, their names have been in the paper over and over again they are respectful and have good attitudes, but do you go out and look for them.
