GMLOK’s week, prior to Chatfield not being nice, saw the Bulldogs run their win streak to seven. John Fenske’s group snuck past L/P 3-2 in five (lightning) for their fourth straight one-run win. Courtney Schmidt (3-3, two 2Bs, RBI, R), Kori Kruegel (5 IP, 2 H, 2 ER, 7 K, Win, 1-2, R), Gretchen Corson (1-3, 2 RBI), and Kellyn Webster (1-2, 2B, R) keyed the attack. Solid Mabel-Canton then visited. The game was errorless. Superb senior short-stops C-Schmidt and Coranda Vickerman made play after play. Schmidt’s leaping catch of a liner (second out) in the seventh, runners on first and second, was critical. GMLOK prevailed 2-0. Alayna Meskill (7 IP, 4 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 10 K, Win) out-dueled Harley McCabe (6 IP, 4 H, 2 ER, Loss). Corson (2-3, 2B, R) and Gracie Schmidt (1-2, RBI) provided the Bulldog “O.” Vickerman (2-3, 2B) and Avery Arneson (2-3) led M-C. GMLOK then downed Southland 13-4 and R-P 13-3 (six) in succession. Allie Lubahn (3-4, two 2B, 4 RBI, R), Lindsay Welch (2-4, two 2B, RBI, 2 R), C-Schmidt (3B, 3 RBI, R), Hattie Voigt (2-4, 2B, 2 RBI, 2 R), Fate (2-3, 2B, 3 R), and Meskill (7 IP, 5 H, 4 ER, 2 BB, 9 K, 1-3, 2 RBI, R) wrecked the Rebels. Twelve Trojan walks were that story. Lubahn (2-4, 2B, 4 RBI, R), Corson (1-3, 2 RBI, R), Fate (1-1, 3 R), and Kruegel (6 IP, 4 H, 3 ER, 7 K, 4 BB, Win) did work. Peyton Hoiness (1-2, RBI, R) paced the Trojans. TRC-West second place GMLOK (14-4, 16-4) is 1AA-West’s 3-seed and will host 6-seed Triton (6-13).
