Medomak 13 – Morse 0
By Mic LeBel
The Medomak softball team shut out Morse 13-0 on Wednesday, April 29 in Waldoboro. The rain-soaked game ended after five innings due to the mercy rule.
Medomak ace Sidney Nicholls tossed a no-hitter and struck out 14 Shipbuilders on the way to her third straight complete game shutout. Nicholls gave up one walk, allowed one runner on base due to a fielding error, and hit one batter with a pitch but was otherwise perfect in the pitching circle.
Leadoff hitter Rheanne Simmons (4R, 3SB) sparked the Medomak offense with three hits. Peyton Eaton (3R, 2RBI, 1SB) was two for-two with a double and a pair of walks, Jennika Schumann (1R, 1RBI) hit a double, and Arianna Sproul (1R, 1RBI), Claudia Feeley (2R, 1RBI), Grace Havener (1R, 1RBI), and Kendall Simmons (1RBI) hit a single each.
