Anthony Wayne softball records 3rd straight tournament shutout
BOWLING GREEN — Stingy pitching and one big inning of offense were the main ingredients for Anthony Wayne on Friday night, as the third-ranked Generals captured their fourth straight Division I district softball title with a 7-0 victory over Mansfield Madison at Bowling Green State University's Meserve Field. Anthony Wayne (25-1), which had clinched a Northern Lakes League Buckeye Division championship with a resounding 15-5 win at Perrysburg on Monday, made it 3-for-3 with tournament shutouts so far by blanking the Rams (20-6) from the Ohio Cardinal Conference. Senior right-hander Kat Meyers, who will pitch next year for the University of Michigan, followed her seven-inning, 18-strikeout perfect game from the Generals 4-0 district semifinal win over Start on Tuesday with five innings of two-hit shutout pitching versus Madison. “I felt pretty good today in warm-ups,” Meyers said. “The field was a little wet, but that's all right. You've just kind of got to work with it and dig it out a little bit. “Our defense was great. I always have my full confidence in them. I had the same mindset as I did on Tuesday — one batter at a time.”
