The Big Pine Lady Warriors softball squadâs last series of games has been the antithesis of their baseball counterparts with a winless Yerington tournament, then a runaway win over the Coleville Lady Wolves Tuesday.
But first, the good news. The Warriors walked their way to a 23-6 win over Coleville.
With a total of 27 walks and four hit batters, the Warriors definitely made lemonade out of lemons; the 23 runs were scored on only four legitimate hits.
The Warriorsâ pitcher, Trisha Fortney, went all seven innings with 4 hits, 4 strikeouts and 12 walks.

Lone Pineâs Seth Gilmore has been signed by Miles Community College baseball team.
The Montana collegeâs head baseball coach, Jeff Brabant, announced the signing of shortstop Gilmore, currently a resident of Powell, Wyo., to a National Letter-of-Intent for the 2012-13 school year.
Gilmore can play either position on the left side of the infield as he earned All-State honors for the Powell Pioneers in his first season after moving to Wyoming from Lone Pine. âWe will graduate our left side of the infield so we expect Seth to come in and compete for a spot,â said Brabant.
