Holbrook’s third ranked softball team traveled to Winslow on Tuesday afternoon for an east region match up against the ninth ranked Lady Bulldogs.
Winslow put together four solid innings beginning in the second to upend Holbrook 12-3. The Bulldogs scored three in the second, added two more in each of the third and fourth, then really put the game out of reach with a five-run sixth inning. Holbrook managed one in the fourth frame, and scored twice in the fifth.
Winslow’s Jordyn Johnson was solid in the circle where she allowed only three runs on four hits with 11 strikeouts and walked just two of the 28 Holbrook batters she faced.
Winslow showed power at the plate with five extra base hits including home runs by Maycee Cunningham and Brooke Williams. Harleigh Scott, Cunningham and Adrianna Yazzie each hit doubles in the win as well.
Overall Alyssa Barton was 2 for 3; Harleigh Scott, 2 for 4; Cunningham, 2 for 3; Williams, 2 for 4; Morgan Thomas, 1 for 4; Justine Butterfield, 1 for 3; Chloe Wilcox, 1 for 4; Adrianna Yazzie, 1 for 3; and Jordyn Johnson, 1 for 4.
With the win Winslow improved their regular season mark to 6-3, while Holbrook dropped their record to 8-2. Winslow played at Show Low on Friday then hosted Snowflake on Tuesday. Holbrook, which had their six-game win streak snapped, had another chance for one on Friday when they hosted Payson. On Saturday they hosted Chinle then on Monday they host Blue Ridge in a double-header match up.
