SEDRO-WOOLLEY- Cubs’ ace Bailey Brewer remained undefeated (7-0) in striking out 17 Lady Tigers as Sedro-Woolley took over sole possession of the Northwest Conference lead with a 5-1 win over Burlington-Edison in fastpitch softball Tuesday at Janicki Field.
Sedro-Woolley catcher Cheyenne Best put the Cubs ahead in the first inning when she scored all the way from first base on a bunt by Wendy Ringhouse that was misplayed by the Tigers. The miscue was one of an uncharacteristic four B-E errors.
Cubs SS Maddie Lynch-Crumrine’s RBI double was part of a three-run fifth inning that gave Sedro-Woolley a 5-0 lead. Best was 2-3 with an RBI and two runs. Holly Hawkins added two hits and a walk for the Cubs.
Jessica Tingley drove-in her sister Rachel with the lone Burlington-Edison run in the sixth inning as the sisters had two of the Tigers’ three hits. B-E starting pitcher Lindsay Dawson struck out eight but was victimized by the four errors in suffering the loss.
With both teams entering the game undefeated in NWC play, Sedro-Woolley remains the only team with a perfect record in the conference (8-0, 13-2 overall) and is ranked #8 in the state 3A rankings.
Burlington-Edison fell to 7-1 in conference (11-4 overall) but the Tigers are still the top 2A team in the three-classification Northwest Conference.

MOUNT VERNON - The combination of the thunderous bat of Bulldogs’ catcher Allison Kutz (4-4 2-HR, 6 RBI) and the effective pitching of Devin Hiltz (5 IP, 0R, 8K’s) was too much for the inexperienced Trojans as Mount Vernon defeated Meridian 10-0 in six innings Thursday afternoon in NWC fastpitch softball webcast live on SkagitRadio.com.
Most of the damage came in the 3rd inning when Mount Vernon batted around for 7 runs on 8 hit. Trojans starter Kylie Simpson struggled with command in the strike zone, leaving too many pitches up, and uncorked two wild pitches and suffered from two passed balls to dig a hole that Meridian couldn’t climb out of. The big blast was an Allison Kutz three run homerun pulled straight down the third base line.
Hiltz raised her record to 7-4 with the win as the Bulldogs improved to 4-2 in the conference and 8-6 overall. Meridian fell to 1-5 in the NWC and 4-9 for the seas0n.
