On Thursday, the Algoma Wolves softball team beat Bay Port 4-2 on their home turf in Suamico, thanks to a three-run third inning.

Macie Zimmerman delivered the game's big blow, registering a two-run double in the inning that was preceded by a run-scoring error on the Pirates. The host Pirates got one of those runs back in the fourth, but the Wolves answered in the fifth with another run scored off an error. 

Brooke Mattson, Ryley Zimmerman, Jadyn Nellis, and Megan Zimmer also got hits in the game for the Wolves, while Macie Zimmerman held things down in the circle, along with two runs (1 ER) on five across seven innings while striking out seven Pirates. HaIley Montie and Ava Plumley had two hits a piece, with Montie and Sydney Rau driving in the lone runs for the Pirates in the loss.

The Wolves will face Roncalli in their WIAA Tournament opener on Tuesday. The game will be carried on 104.1 WRLU.

The Algoma Wolves suffered a complete letdown on defense Tuesday, as nine errors led to six unearned runs in a 10-5 home loss to the Mishicot Indians.

Starting Wolves pitcher Parker Lischka took the brunt of the poor defense, as only three of his seven runs allowed were earned in his two innings of work. Lischka did hit a long homer, his third of the season.

Charlie Prokash went 1-3 with two RBIs, and Grant Vendervest had two hits for the Wolves, but it was not enough.

Algoma travels to Marinette on Thursday in another non-conference matchup.  

The Algoma track and field teams posted several top-five finishes at Monday's Packerland Conference track meet.

Faith Gerdmann was the closest to winning her events, taking second place in the shot put and discus. Estella Marrero was also on the doorstep of a win, earning a personal record and a second-place finish in the pole vault. For the boys, Brennan Buckman had his own personal record in the pole vault to lead the Wolves with a third-place finish.

The Wolves will welcome Gibraltar, Kewaunee, NEW Lutheran/Providence Academy, Oconto, Peshtigo, Sevastopol, Southern Door, and Sturgeon Bay for the meet that will settle the All-Packerland Conference teams and give athletes a tune-up before next Monday's WIAA Regional meets.

The first events are scheduled for 3:30 p.m.

Macie Zimmerman mowed down 11 Tigers from the circle as she picked up the win, allowing two runs (0 ER) and three hits across five innings.

The Algoma softball team capped their afternoon with two-run rallies in the first and seventh innings to beat host Marinette 5-1 on Thursday.

Macie Zimmerman did the bulk of the damage for the Wolves, going 4-4 at the plate with two RBI thanks to a double and a home run.

The regularly scheduled doubleheader between the two top softball teams in the Packerland Conference was washed out on Tuesday, but they won't have to wait too long to settle the score on the diamond.  The Algoma Wolves will now host the twin bill against the Sevastopol Pioneers next Tuesday, May 14.   First Pitch is scheduled for 4:30 p.m.
