Pirates quartet shows out in sweep of Cougars

Posted

Ava Simms, Margarite Humphrey, Kendall Humphrey and Danika Hallom all contributed in a big way on Saturday afternoon as the Adna softball team picked up a 7-0, 6-2 sweep against Warden on its home field.

Margarite Humphrey launched a three-run home run to cap a five-run bottom of the second in the opener and Kendall Humphrey hit a solo shot in the nightcap. Those two combined for seven runs batted in. Hallom roped two doubles in each game for the Pirates.

Adna (6-3) has won five straight and have allowed just three runs in the streak. Simms tossed a complete game shutout in Game 1 with 11 strikeouts, then turned around and fired four innings in Game 2 to earn two wins in the circle.

The right-hander also recorded two doubles in the nightcap while Gaby Guard notched an RBI single in Game 1. The Pirates will travel to Toutle Lake to resume C2BL play on Monday.
