pleasantville-3

Pleasantville’s softball and baseball squads came up short to Interstate-35, as the softball team suffered a 9-4 loss while the baseball squad lost 13-7.

The Trojans’ softball squad surrendered seven runs in the final three innings after being up 4-2 after four. Pleasantville lost despite out-hitting the Roadrunners 10-9. Amber McKinney led the way for the Trojans, finishing two for four with three RBIs. Faith Vanderhart, Riley Thill, Josie Sowers, and Sydni Septer all had doubles in the loss.

The Trojans’ baseball squad was unable to put any consistent pitching together, which ultimately proved to be the difference. Jonah Schumacher finished two for three with two singles. Dale Jolly had a two-run double, but it ultimately wasn’t enough as Pleasantville dropped to 4-7 on the season.

Pleasantville’s baseball squad will be back in action today for a non-conference showdown with Central Decatur. The game will begin at 7:00 PM. The softball squad has the day off and will be back Thursday for a doubleheader with Woodward-Granger.
