GAME 5

Williams 3    Marionapolis 18

It was an extremely cold and rainy day but the blues came out strong despite the weather.  Up by two in the bottom of the second, a great play by Shoshana Berkman changed the momentum of the game forever.  Shoshana held on to a throw from her sister Rivkah Berkman at home plate to get the first out of the inning.  As the opposing team’s base runner tried to slide under the tag, she took Shoshana down.  Shoshana suffered an arm injury which ended up forcing her to leave the game. With Shoshana’s absence the team had to change several defensive positions.  Thirteen errors were committed by the team.  Even with Rivkah’s gallant effort from the mound,  striking out seven batters in five inning, it wasn’t enough for the blues to bounce back.  Danielle Auerbach continued to produce up at bat going 1-for-1 with two runs scored, While Marjorie Holcombe, Sarah Shourds, and Hayleigh Mildon each had one hit a piece. 

GAME 6

Williams 4    Wheeler 14

Sarah Shourds allowed only three hits in her pitching debut, while Rivkah Berkman allowed only one hit in her two innings of relief.  Unfortunately this was not enough for the Blues to get the victory.  With the absence of Shoshana Berkman (due to injury) and Marjorie Holcombe, the Blues continued to commit another thirteen errors in this game also. The bats did come alive a bit more in this game but it still wasn’t enough to make up for the errors.  Danielle Auerbach was 3-for-4 with a double and two runs scored, Rivkah was 2-for-3 with two doubles and three RBI, while Christina Menniti and Hayleigh Mildon both had one hit a piece.

GAME 7

Williams 8    Hamden Hall 7

With a full healthy team back, the Blues showed Hamden Hall how Williams Softball is played.  Despite having only 4 hits, Williams took advantage of every base runner it had.  Executing delayed steals and other creative plays on the base path is what sealed the win for the Blues.  Sarah Shourds and Rivkah Berkman combined to strike out seven batters in Sarah’s first official win at the pitcher position.  Danielle Auerbach went 2-for-2 with a double and one run scored, while Marjorie Holcombe and Rivkah both went 1-for-3 with two runs scored each.  Haley Blair, Shoshana Berkman, and Sarah all scored one run a piece.

GAME 8
