E-SWC trounces AA softball team

The Adrian Area Dragons fell behind early and were unable to recover when they faced the conference-leading Edgerton-Southwest Christian for a softball game in Ellsworth Tuesday.

E-SWC scored nine runs in the top half of the first inning and plated seven runs in the final two frames to complete a 19-3, five-inning victory.

AA scored one run in the second inning and two in the third.

Devin Dreesen started the game on the mound and took the loss. She registered one out before being lifted for Jodi Bents, who worked the final four and two-thirds innings.

Dreesen belted a two-run homerun at the plate in the third inning, while Olivia Weidert and Alecia Lunt singled for the Dragons.
