Lead off batter Allison Weithman went 2-for-4 and scored a pair of runs for Colonel Crawford.

Lady Eagles would again bring a pair of runs across in the third inning and three more runs in the fourth inning.

Senior Kaylyn Risner was very good at the plate, going 2-for-4, scoring three times. Risner ripped a triple and recorded one run batter in.

Harley Thomas recorded two hits for the Lady Eagles and had three runs batted in. Alivia Studer knocked two hits through as well, one being a double.

Hanna Perry, Madison Cobb, Hannah Allen and Alley Crabaugh all picked up one hit for Colonel Crawford.

Davis took the loss for Bucyrus pitching wise. The senior allowed 12 hits through six innings, struck out five and gave up five earned runs.

With the win, Colonel Crawford stays undefeated at 8-0 overall, 3-0 in Northern 10 play. The Lady Eagles will play a double header against Lexington on Saturday.
