Lady Wolverines Win Championship

The Vian Lady Wolverines fast pitch softball team won four straight games last week to capture the Pocola Invitational Championship.

In the first round the Lady Wolverines (5-1) defeated the Gore Lady Pirates 6 to 0 in four innings. Sophomore Addison Elbon went 3 for 3, with one double, two singles, three steals and two runs.

In the quarterfinals Vian defeated the Muldrow Lady Bulldogs 8 to 2 to advance to the semifinals.

In game one of the semifinals, against Pocola, the Lady Wolverines won 6 to 0 in five innings. Sophomore Shandria Jackson allowed only three hits over six innings. Elbon, Megan Eckhardt and Miley Hughes all were 2 for 3.

In game two against Pocola, the Lady Wolverines defeated the Lady Indians 3 to 1. Jackson put Vian on the board with a two-run home run in the first. She also struck out five and gave up only seven hits. Pocola gave the Lady Wolverines a scare in the bottom of the fifth when they had the bases loaded, but Vian got out of the inning with no runs scored. Chloe Clifton added a solo home run in the sixth to seal the championship for Vian.

 The Lady Wolverines only allowed three runs in four wins at the invitational.
