Wolves softball found its rhythm after a week in Hawaii. After losing both games of their first double header to Hawaii Pacific, they went on a four-game win streak over the rest of the week with wins over Chaminade and BYU-Hawaii.<\/p>\n
The games against Hawaii Pacific on Feb. 13 were high scoring affairs, where the Wolves lost 6-10 and 6-8.<\/p>\n
First year pitcher Chandler Bishop came out to pitch in the fourth inning of the first game. Wolves held a 6-5 lead at the time. Hawaii Pacific put up five points in the final three innings to grab the win and gave Bishop the loss.<\/p>\n
Sophomore pitcher Haley Fabian opened the second Monday match with three quick strikeouts. Junior outfielder Zoe Clark homered in the second. Again, until the fourth, Western Oregon led.<\/p>\n
Fabian gave up six runs in two innings before being relieved by senior Sammi Cadwallader. The loss was Fabian\u2019s third of the season.
\n\u201cWe started the week out on a very low note,\u201d said Ku\u2019ulei Siolo, senior catcher. \u201cBut I think that fired us up. We went into each game ready to take care of business, and that\u2019s what we did.\u201d<\/p>\n
On Feb. 15, the Wolves delivered a pair of blowouts to Chaminade, winning 11-2 and 12-4.<\/p>\n
Fabian pitched a complete game to open the doubleheader, which also saw the Wolves slug away three home runs. Senior shortstop Kelsie Gardner scored three runs off of five at-bats in the first game.<\/p>\n
The second game began with power, as the Wolves racked up eight runs over the first two innings and continued in style on the way to the second big win.<\/p>\n
The week of doubleheaders closed out at BYU-Hawaii, where the Wolves again dominated. The first game finished 9-3 and the second 11-0.<\/p>\n
Fabian picked up her second win of the season and Cadwallader improved to a 3-0 record.<\/p>\n
Zoe Clark had four RBIs and two runs over the course of the day.
\nThe 6-5 Wolves travel to Caldwell this weekend to face the College of Idaho.<\/p>\n
