Snowflake won both outings last week earning two east region wins in the process.
Tuesday they were in Blue Ridge where they used a big sixth inning to put the game completely out of reach and end it early under the mercy rule. Blue Ridge took the early lead with a single run in the first frame, then Snowflake opened the game up with 6 runs in the top of the second. They added 2 more in the fifth, then really put the game out of reach with an 8-run sixth inning. Snowflake went on to win the game 16-2.
Kashlynn Cantrell pitched six innings in the circle where she allowed just 2 runs on 7 hits, with 12 strikeouts and only one walk.
At the plate, Kesley Scarbrough went 3 for 5. Addie Coor was 3 for 5 with a double. Kashlynn Cantrell went 1 for 5, but that one was a triple. Kinslee Claridge went 1 for 2. Kloe Burden, 1 for 4; Paisley Solomon, 1 for 4, and Brodie Cates was 1 for 3.
Friday afternoon the Lobos hosted Alchesay. The outcome of this game was decided early one. Snowflake scored 6 runs in the bottom of the first, then added 4 more in the second. Their final 2 runs came in the fourth inning of the 12-0 win.
Solomon had control in the circle allowing no runs and only 2 hits with 7 strikeouts and no walks.
