The Algoma softball team hopes that the home cooking remains hot as they play St. Mary's Springs in sectional semifinal action on Tuesday.
The Wolves won the regional title last Thursday with a 10-0 win over Markesan. Macie Zimmermann struck out 11 batters across five innings of no-hit ball against the Hornets, adding to her collection of similar performances in her Algoma career. Her teammates did the work at the plate, scoring five times in the first and fifth innings to end the game early due to the mercy rule. Amya Lukes capped off the first five-spot with an RBI single while Ryley Tweedy walked off the Hornets with a single of her own. The Wolves only needed four hits to score their runs, instead feasting on three Hornets errors and eight walks. Tweedy and Lukes each had two hits and combined for three RBI.
With a 6-13 record entering the tournament, the Ledgers have caught fire with two upsets on the road, knocking off St. Mary Catholic 7-1 and Princeton/Green Lake 8-3.
First pitch from Peterson Park is set for 4:30 p.m.
