Rust Leads Sarcoxie Softball to Dominant Win Against Riverton
RIVERTON, KS. β Bentley Rust led the way with a team-high 4 RBI for Sarcoxie Softball in a dominant 13-2 win on the road against Riverton, spoiling the Ramsβ season opener.
Despite the game ending via run-rule, the first inning saw Riverton hold a 2-1 advantage after six outs were recorded before the Bears erupted at the plate.
Sarcoxie managed to pile on 10 runs in the top of the second inning alone to bring the game nearly out of reach before the halfway mark.
Bre Shumake held things down in the pitching circle, holding Riverton scoreless for the final four innings of the game while the offense managed to tack on a pair of security runs; one in the fourth and another in the fifth inning.
The Bears will be back in action Tuesday, March 24 against Galena while the Rams will look to bounce back next time out on Friday, March 27 against New Heights Christian Academy.
