“Overall I thought we played pretty decent but we could’ve done better,” said Miller.

Shildt agreed.  She said, “Overall I felt that we play a good game.  I think we need to clean up the little things in our game and we should be good.”

The Bulldogs could not get their run in until the sixth inning.

Maddie Miller hit a double.

Taylor Shildt was the winning pitcher and she had 5 strikeouts.

The Blue Devils had 6 runs, 14 hits, and 5 errors.

“There were small errors that probably shouldn’t have been made, but they happen and they didn’t affect the game much,” said Maddie Miller.

Shildt had a different opinion. She said, “I feel that we have been making small errors that end up hurting us in the long run.  I feel that we need to clean up our game and we should be good.”

Their record has improved to 8-2.
