TELL CITY—Crawford County scored 10 second-inning runs to beat Tell City 10-4 in a rain-shortened girls softball game Tuesday.
Crawford County had only four hits in five innings. But the Wolfpack took advantage of six walks, two errors and two wild pitches in their big inning.
The good news for the Marksmen, though, is they are starting to hit better. Jessie Wheatley went 3 for 3 with a double and three RBIs to lead their six-hit attack.
She raised her season batting average to .500 (6 for 12).

MITCHELL—Mitchell’s two unearned runs in the first inning stood up as the Blue-jackets beat Perry Central 2-1 in a PLAC baseball pitching duel Tuesday.
Tanner Cassidy pitched a complete game for Perry Central, giving up only five singles, walking only one, and striking out five.
But the Commodores committed two of their three errors in the first inning, allowing Mitchell to score its runs.
Mitchell played errorless ball and Perry Central had only four hits despite striking out only four times.

OWENSBORO, Ky.—Lauren Goffinet of Tell City was named Kentucky Wesleyan College’s Female Athlete of the Year for the second year in a row at the school’s all-sports awards reception April 26.
Goffinet, a 2009 graduate of Tell City High School, was a senior guard and the captain of the Panthers’ women’s basketball team. She helped the team to its first Great Lakes Valley Conference East Division championship and its second NCAA Division II tourney bid.

PETERSBURG—Chris Schaefer pitched a four-hitter as Tell City defeated Pike Central 5-1 in PAC baseball Tuesday.
Schaefer struck out nine and walked none, and his teammates committed only one error.
“He threw a great game,” said Tell City Coach Jason Wilkerson. He was getting ahead (in the count) with his fastball, and he’s learned to throw his curveball in situations for strikes.
“I’ve said it before: When we play a clean baseball game and our pitchers throw strikes, we’re a pretty good team.”
