GATORS BLAST RAMS

 The BGMR Gator Softball Team offensively got off to a slow start but got solid starting pitching and sound defense as the Gators raced to an 11-1 six inning victory over the Roseau Rams. BGMR scored 1 run in the first when Aunica Novacek scored on a single by Corinn Balstad. BGMR would tack on 3 more runs in each of the third and fourth innings, scored two in the fifth and 2 more in the sixth to end the game via 10 run rule. Roseau’s loan run came in the sixth when Heather Nelson singled and later scored on a single by Dianna Grendahl. Gator starting pitcher Aunica Novacek picked up her fourth win of the year as she pitched all six innings, striking out 6 and not allowing a walk. Offensively the Gators were led by Tori Mekash who had 3 hits.  No other Gator had more than 1 hit however the Gators were patient with their at bats and coaxed 10 walks and 4 hit batters out of the Rams pitchers. BGMR will continue its rough schedule with a game today at RLF. The defending Section 8A Champion Eagles will be looking for revenge as BGMR took it to them last week. With the wind gusting like a hurricane it should be an interesting ball game for both teams.
