Oakridge Warriors Softball 16-30 Powers

Powers put together a powerful offensive display Saturday afternoon, overwhelming Oakridge 30-16 in a non-league softball clash at Oakridge High School. The visiting team's bats came alive early and often, building a commanding lead that proved insurmountable despite the Warriors' efforts to keep pace. Oakridge managed to plate 16 runs of their own, showing flashes of the offensive potential that has emerged throughout the spring season. However, Powers' relentless attack at the plate made the difference in what became a slugfest between two teams swinging hot bats. The loss drops Oakridge to 3-5 on the season as they continue working through their non-league schedule before conference play intensifies. Head coach will likely focus on defensive fundamentals and pitching consistency in practice this week, as both teams combined for 46 runs in a game that showcased plenty of offensive firepower. The Warriors will look to bounce back and get back to .500 when they return to action later this week.
