The last time the Shorewood and Lynnwood softball teams met on March 21 at Shorewood High School, the two teams combined for 45 runs and ended in extra innings with Shorewood winning 23-22.

The rematch took place Friday afternoon at Lynnwood High, where Lynnwood erupted for eight runs in the second inning on their way to a 14-3 victory in six innings.

They key difference for the Royals was starting pitcher, Mayda Rieflin.

In the first meeting between the two schools, Rieflin was not available due to a sore arm. Friday, she pitched well, allowing just three runs on seven hits, and struck out eight batters.

“It was hard not being able to play (in the first game). Felt good to be back,” Rieflin said after the game. She went on to compliment her teammates. “They did really well. Jayden (Angell) with that stellar diving catch. That was amazing. And Hannah (Swartz) with that walk off home run. That was awesome!”

The plays she referred to were a diving catch by third baseman, Jayden Angell for the first out in the fifth inning. The other play occurred with one out in the bottom of the sixth inning, leading 12-3 and one runner on base.

Second baseman Hannah Swartz rocketed the second pitch of the at bat well over the right field fence for a walk-off home run, granting Lynnwood the victory by virtue of the 10-run mercy rule.

Other key contributors for the Royals were junior catcher Maddy Ryan, who had a single, triple and her first career home run, a three-run shot in the second inning. Senior first baseman Angie Martin added a single and a home run.

The win gives Lynnwood the current edge in the form of a two-game lead over Shorewood and Shorecrest for the fourth-place spot in the Wesco 3A South which would earn them a spot in a play-in game to qualify for the district tournament.

Lynnwood will return to action on Wednesday, May 2 when they travel to Meadowdale High School to take on the Mavericks. The game will start at 4 p.m.

Varsity softball
Saturday 4-7-18
Shorecrest 9 - Shorewood 7

Shorecrest varsity took on Shorewood Saturday afternoon and won 9 - 7 in a highly competitive game.

It was a very blustery day with sporadic rain showers, forcing an unscheduled 20 minute break to allow a nasty windy gust with rain go through before play could resume.

Shorecrest head coach Mike "Oly" Olsen said, "It was tough to pitch the ball due to the wetness of the ball, however both pitchers Allie Leicester and Bonnie Paulson did a heck of a job battling.

Olsen said, "We pitched to Allison Namba very carefully but she still hit a double. Mia Battle hit two big singles for the T-Birds as well.

"But, we had timely hitting which finally led to the victory."

Shorecrest collected 11 hits in its 9-7 win over Shorewood. The Scots scored 4 runs in the 4th with a home run by freshman Kaine Marcinkowski and a double by senior Shaylee Scott.

Kaine's home run pumped some adrenaline into the Scots. Shaylee Scott led the team with three big hits along with three RBI's, as well as Kat Houghtaling-Wheeler with two hits and two RBI's. Both Narissa McDuffie and Destiny Houghtaling chipped in two hits as well.

Each week throughout the school year, the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association (WIAA) recognizes twelve varsity athletes, a male and a female from each of the six classifications, who exhibited an outstanding performance for the previous week.

Brianne McCaslin, a Senior from Shorewood High School, was nominated by a community member and selected by WIAA staff as one of the Athletes of the Week for achievements in Softball.

Athlete of the Week: Brianne McCaslin, Shorewood High School, Softball 3A

McCaslin was instrumental in victories over Oak Harbor (15-14 final) and Lynnwood (7-6 extra innings final), batting .500 with a double, two triples, and driving in five runs. She also played a major role on defense with five put-outs, including a run-saving catch in the left-center gap and throwing out a runner (the go-ahead run) at third-base to complete the double-play.

In recognition of the accomplishment, each Athlete of the Week winner receives a congratulatory letter from WIAA Executive Director, Mike Colbrese; a commemorative WIAA State Athlete of the Week t-shirt; and a certificate. Winners are also posted to the WIAA website.
