Lady Bulldogs in Stratford

The Wayne Lady Bulldogs are in Stratford today for the District tournament with the Bulldogs and Mangum Lady Tigers.

Wayne will play Mangum at 1 p.m. and the loser of game one will play Stratford.

Bray Doyle/Fletcher

Wayne was in Bray Doyle on Monday for a three way with the Lady Donkeys and Fletcher.

The Lady Bulldogs picked up wins in both games. They got a 10-4 win over Bray-Doyle and a 6-4 win over Fletcher.

Head coach Nikki Herrin was pleased with her team’s offense in both games.

“We hit well yesterday. Allison had a home run; she’s been so steady for us.”

She also said that she felt like getting two more wins before starting Districts was helpful.

“I’m glad to get two more wins under our belt. It gives us some momentum going to Stratford. But also, if the team shows up like I know that they can, then we’re unbeatable,” Herrin said.

Konawa

Last Friday, Wayne was in Konawa for a double header with the Lady Tigers.

Konawa took the first game, 13-11, but Wayne won game two, 31-19.

Through two games, Wayne had 47 hits and 41 RBIs.

Konawa jumped out to a 10-0 lead after two innings in their first game of the doubleheader. But, Wayne chipped away, scoring two in the third, five in the fourth, and three more in the sixth.

The Lady Tigers added another run in the bottom of the third and two insurance runs in the sixth.

Wayne’s rally fell short of the win.

Emily Woody led the Lady Bulldogs, going 3-4 at the plate. Alyssa Hobson, Kaylee Madden, Faith Brazell, Lily Whitaker and Ava Stottlemyre each had two hits.

Madden and Stottlemyre also had three RBIs each.

Game two of the double-header finished more like  basketball score. Wayne won 31-19.

“We hit really well, but we did not play defense well,” Herrin said.

The Lady Bulldogs had Konawa in run-rule territory a couple times, but errors kept them from finishing.
