Kingswood defense shines; Holds Green Farms for season sweep.
The Wyverns on the road again on Wednesday made the trip to Green Farms Academy for the second meeting of the season. With the Wyverns taking game one it was expected to be a different game for the re-match.
KO got the scoring kicked off in the top of the 1st inning when Kyra Dunnirvine ’23 singled to lead off the game and scored on a Niamh Foley ’25 single. Green Farms answered in the bottom of the first also scoring their leadoff batter to tie the game at 1-1.
KO answered right back in the Top of the 2nd inning with 2 outs. Kyra Dunnirvine ’23 doubled down the 3rd baseline, Mackenzie Caruso ’23 walked to put runners at 1st and 2nd with 2 outs. Hailey Williams ’24 rocketed the first pitch of her at bat over the left center field fence for 3R HR to put KO ahead 4-1. This would prove to be the game winner as the Wyverns tighten up on defense holding Green Farms 6 runners on base and not allowing them to score another run the rest of the way. To make a comeback more of a challenge for Green Farms, Kingswood added 3 more runs in the top of the 7th. With hits from Hailey Williams ’24 and Lexi Vail ’22 and RBI hits from Niamh Foley ’25 and Aubrey Wolfradt ’24.
