Hays High Softball Sweeps Junction City

The Hays High Indian softball team moved to 4-0 with a pair of five inning 10-0 wins over Junction City Tuesday night.  Freshman Hannah Herald pitched a masterful game allowing just two base runners in game one.  Herald moved to 3-0 on the season allowing just one hit and another batter reached due to a fielding error.  It took a while for the Indian offense to gain some traction before scoring four runs in each the third and fourth innings highlighted by Katelyn Schumacher hitting a three run home run in the third and two run home run in the fourth.
Schumacher was the starting pitcher in game two and immediately found herself in trouble hitting the first two batters and then throwing a wild pitch.  With runners on second and third Shumacher struck out the next two batters.  Schumacher walked the fifth batter of the inning, but the ball got past catcher Haley Wells who retrieved the ball in time to throw out the runner from third trying steal home and end the inning.  Schumacher settled down from there pitching a one hit shut out.  The offense scored in each of the five innings, Hannah Herald and Makenzie Flaska each drove in three runs.   Schumacher picks up her first win of the season and 16th of her career.
