Algoma Wolves softball was swept in a doubleheader against Waupun and Two Rivers in frigid conditions Saturday, despite a strong start to the season.

In Game 1, Algoma managed just two hits in a 13-1 loss to Waupun. Despite the lopsided score, Mackenzie Lischka battled through all seven innings in the circle, striking out five.

The Wolves struggled to generate offense against a dominant Waupun pitching performance that piled up 13 strikeouts, keeping Algoma off balance all game.

The chilly weather only seemed to tighten its grip in Game 2, where Algoma fell 10-0 to the Two Rivers Raiders. This time, the Wolves showed slight improvement at the plate, collecting four hits. Sadie Rikkola and Ella Severinsen each had one hit to give them two on the day.

Macie Zimmerman turned in a strong effort in the circle despite the score, striking out seven and allowing just two earned runs over 5 1/3 innings. Defensive miscues proved costly, as unearned runs widened the gap.

The Wolves will look to regroup and rediscover their offensive spark in their next matchup at Crivitz on Tuesday at 4 p.m.
