Things have gotten harried for Middleton’s girls softball team.
That’s what nightmarish spring weather will do.
But the Cardinals held up well last week, winning three of the five games they played. Middleton improved to 4-4 overall.
Here’s a recap of the Cardinals’ week.
• Middleton 5, Beloit Memorial 4 — Emily Pomykalski had two hits, including a triple, and drove in three runs to power the visiting Cardinals last Friday.
Ashley Stormer went the distance for Middleton, striking out five and allowing just two earned runs.
Middleton raced to a 5-0 lead through two innings, then held on for dear life as the Purple Knights charged back.
“Good win,” Middleton manager Arin Oppermann said. “It was great that we got the lead right away, but now we need to work on getting on base and scoring every inning. We can’t get too comfortable with the amount of runs we have.”
