In their season opener, the Jaguars fastpitch team loses 7-6 in nine innings at Osakis - That's harsh!
The Jaguar fastpitch infield gathers at the pitcher's circle prior to the start of the bottom of the fifth inning.
Senior Anna Marthaler crosses home plate after Raeann Sorenson's RBI-single brought her home for the Jaguars' fifth run of the game. They led 5-3 in the top of the fifth inning at this point.
What a tough loss for the squad.
The host Silverstreaks scored a one-out single in the bottom of the ninth to earn the win. Sophomore Michelle Sanders took the pitching loss, going the distance while giving up three walks and two earned runs. She scattered seven hits and earned two strikeouts.
For Osakis, Sabrina Zimmel earned six strikeouts while scattering six B-B-E hits and giving up five walks and five earned runs.
Osakis improves to 4-0 overall. Their third victory of the season came at Kimball Area last Friday afternoon with a 9-3 final score. You can read about that game here at Vikinglandsports.com: http://vikinglandsports.com/newsarticle.php?yid=0910&nid=37207

Up next for the Jaguars fastpitch team: this Thursday, April 15, they host another sub-section rival, Browerville, in their home opener.
The Tigers (0-1) were crushed by Osakis 21-2 in five innings on April 8. The score of that game was actually 21-2 after four innings. That still does not mean, of course, that Browerville should be taken lightly.
