The Atlantic Trojan Softball team consistently hit away to have an 11-1 win at home against Kuemper Catholic on Wednesday night. The Trojans relied on sharp pitching from Riley Wood inside the circle and she delivered. Wood pitched 6 innings, had 1 earned run, 7 hits, 3 strikeouts, and only one walk. Head Coach Terry Hinzmann was impressed with the way her pitch variety shook up the Knights batters.

As a team Atlantic had some solid approaches to the plate with 10 hits. The Trojans best performers in the box were Riley Wood who went 2-4 with two triples and two RBI’s and Lila Wiederstein who went 2-4 with a single and triple and two RBI’s. Coach Hinzmann wanted this team to clean up their hitting and improve on staying patient at the plate.

The win improves Atlantic’s record to 19-12 on the season. Next stop for the Trojans is a road trip to Harlan on Thursday night and coach Hinzmann hopes to see continued focus from his team.

The loss drops Kuemper Catholic to 11-8 for the year and they head back home to face Greene County on Thursday evening.
