By Jaylaa Cabrera and Paige Gordon SILVERDALE--The Ridgetop fastpitch team lost in their game against Klahowya with an ending score of 12-4 on April 28. Although the Raiders lost, pitchers were consistent with many strikeouts by pitchers Chloe Ashcraft and Molly Gates. Gates pitched for the first time in this game. “You have to be mentally tough and know a lot about the game to handle the responsibilities of a pitcher,” said eighth grade shortstop and pitcher Gates. Klahowya scored 5 runs in the first inning.
Klahowya kept pitching balls that Ridgetop couldn’t quite hit. But on the downside for Ridgetop, “They [Klahowya] could hit very well, and it was difficult to catch,” said eighth grader Kelly Ryan, outfielder. The Raiders fastpitch record for this season is 2-2 so far. Comments are closed.
