WINDSOR

Having won 4-1 on Friday afternoon at their home field, Windsor High School’s softball team is going to the semi-finals in the region this Tuesday at Rappahannock High School in Warsaw. The Lady Dukes had previously won 4-3 in the quarter finals against Park View High’s Lady Dragons on May 16.

Head coach Brooke Sutphin again had reason to be proud of her girls after they faced the Washington and Lee Lady Eagles.

“We started off the game in first inning with Sydney Turner at bat, who had an in-the-park home run. The kid’s fast and it went to the fence.

“Our kids really played together. There were a few errors, but that didn’t stop us.”

Sutphin also recognized Maja Angle, who pitched “a great game. She allowed only three hits, one run and no walks.”

The coach again stressed the team members’ play: They really worked together.”

Though Windsor’s team had not yet played against Rappahannock’s Lady Raiders, she knows of them by reputation as a “a good team. They’re second in the region. We are coming in third as the underdog.”
