Lady Broncos score wins over C.C. Ravens

May 2, 2011

The Bishop Lady Broncos softball teams both came up with wins over California City Friday. The varsity won 1-0; the junior varsity 19-3.
“We were short handed,” said varsity coach Stacy Van Nest, “traveling with only 11 girls. The win took all 11 and they gave it everything they had.”
According to Van Nest, the lone run was deceptive. “We had several hard hits into the wind,” she said, “so our run doesn’t really show how well we were hitting.”

re a bit of a surprise to the Bishop Broncos in early April when the two met at Bishop High. The Ravens took an early lead before the Broncos got on track and came from behind in the fifth inning to win the first High Desert League game 9-4.
There was no surprise in Friday’s rematch in Cal City. The Broncos came home with a 16-1 win and are still on top of the league standings.
“We played terrific defense,” said coach Tim Reid. “Chance Callahan and Schain Thomson were both outstanding.”
