A familiar duo from the basketball season led the softball team to victory on Tuesday with Sevastopol beating Peshtigo 9-2.

The Pioneers scored three runs in the first inning with Naomi Rikkola clearing the bases on a triple before scoring on an Addison Schauske ground out. Stolen bases led to two more runs in the third inning before the Pioneers struck again in the fifth thanks to a pair of singles from the Rikkola sisters. An error helped the Bulldogs get onto the scoreboard, though that was quickly matched by a Kayla Ranly RBI single. The Bulldogs would score one more time to settle on the final score.

Ranly went 3-3 with one RBI while Rikkola finished 2-4 with three RBI. Schauske, who collected two RBI at the plate, earned the win from the circle allowing one run (1 ER) on five hits while striking out five.
