MONDAY RESULTS - June 17

(high school softball)

(#4-4A) Le Mars 4, Western Christian 1

(#3-3A) Sergeant Bluff-Luton 20, Gehlen Catholic 5

(HULL) -- Madison Heidebrink's three-run homer in the top of the seventh inning Monday night snapped a 1-1 tie and sent fourth-ranked (4A) Le Mars past Western Christian 4-1 in Lakes Conference softball action at Hull.  Heidebrink also drove in the Lady Bulldogs first run with a squeeze bunt.  The Wolfpack tied the game with a run in the fifth inning off Molly Renken.  It was the first run off Renken since May and snapped her scoreless streak at 64 innings.  Le Mars improves to 19-and-0 for the season and 7-and-0 in the Lakes Conference.

(LE MARS) -- Third-ranked (3A) Sergeant Bluff-Luton spoiled Gehlen Catholic's return home after nearly three weeks of playing on the road with a 20-5 rout of the Lady Jays Monday night in a non-conference softball game, matching two former War Eagle Conference rivals.  The Lady Jays haven't played at home since May 23rd because of flooding at the River View Complex during the Memorial Day weekend.  The occaissional rains since then have prevented Gehlen from playing on the home diamond.  The Warriors scored seven runs in the first inning, collecting seven of their 23 hits for the night in the opening frame.  Gehlen battled back to within 10-5 thanks to a a four-run fourth inning.  S-B-L turned the game into a rout with eight runs in the seventh to extend a 12-5 lead into a 17-run advantage going into the bottom of the seventh.  Gehlen falls to 9-and-11 for the season.

(#7-3A) Le Mars 7, Western Christian 3

(HULL) -- Hunter Rowe, Parker Rolfes and Colan Borchers combined to strike out ten batters and allowed just one hit against Western Christian Monday night as number-seven (3A) Le Mars held off the Wolfpack to win 7-3 in Lakes Conference baseball action at Hull.  Rowe started the game on the mound for Le Mars and worked two and one-third, giving up Western's only hit, a second inning RBI single by Daniel Van Maanen.  He walked two and hit three batters before turning the ball over to Rolfes in the third.  A wild pitch by Rolfes allowed the Wolfpack to pull to with 4-3 in the third inning.  He quieted Western Christian's offense after that, striking out seven and walking one while holding the Wolfpack hitless.  Borchers threw the final inning, striking out two of the three batters he faced.  Rolfes earned the win to improve to 5-and-0.  Offensively, Colan Borchers' two-run single in the fourth inning capped a three-run inning that extended the Bulldogs' lead to 7-3.  Parker Rolfes, Jacob Lamoreux and Dayton Rand paced the Bulldogs' ten-hit attack with two hits each.  Le Mars improves to 11-and-1 for the season and 7-and-0 in the Lakes Conference.
