An early home run given up by Erin Cherovsky did not rattle the Luxemburg-Casco softball team in a 6-2 win over Freedom on Monday.

 

It was 1-0 Irish heading into the bottom of the fourth inning when the Spartans broke through with three runs in the frame. They would take on insurance runs in the fifth and sixth innings to eliminate a comeback. The Spartans took advantage of four Irish errors to score most of their runs. Grace Kahr went 2-4 with an RBI, with Josie Dorner, Kate Van Ess, and Kacie Jorgensen all getting hits. 

 

Cherovsky recovered after the home run, allowing six hits and two runs (2 ER) across seven innings while striking out six. It was vengeance for their earlier meeting in the season that resulted in the Spartans' lone loss.

The Spartans are back in action against last year's spoilers, the Marinette Marines, when they meet there for a 4:30 p.m. first pitch. The Spartans took the first game of the season series on April 18th with an 11-1 victory.
