The Charger softball team had an outstanding week, going a perfect 6-0 with three doubleheader sweeps at home—defeating Lakeland Community College (April 14), the University of Northwestern Ohio JV (April 15), and Owens Community College (April 17). The Lady Chargers outscored their opponents 53-8 across the six games, showcasing dominant pitching, timely hitting, and continued growth throughout the roster.
Pitchers Marissa Pine and Zoey Hodge were exceptional all week. Pine improved her record to 12-2 with three wins, including a complete-game shutout against Owens and a near-perfect performance against Lakeland in the opener. Hodge continued her strong sophomore campaign, picking up three wins of her own and clouting a home run in the Lakeland nightcap. The pitching staff combined for a 1.33 ERA over the six games.
Offensively, Mackenzie Byrne, Kasidi Daugherty, Jenna Dirksen, and Taylor Bauer paced the Charger attack all week. Byrne homered in the Lakeland opener and drove in six RBIs over the week. Daugherty belted a home run against Northwestern Ohio JV, and Bauer added a homer of her own. The lineup was productive top to bottom, with multiple players contributing multi-hit and multi-RBI performances across the three doubleheaders.
