The Lady Whippets took the lead in the first inning against Brodhead as Shyan Lesperance hit a single, stole second, and went to third on the catcher’s throwing error. Lexi Juoni laid down a nice bunt that scored Lesperance.

Brodhead came back and scored 5 runs in the second inning to take the lead. Brodhead continued to add to their lead as they had 11 hits and took advantage of 6 Whippet errors to tally 13 runs.

The final score was 13 to 1 Brodhead. Cheyenne Bohmann did a nice job of pitching as she went 6 innings, giving up 11 hits, and striking out four Cardinal batters. Only 5 of the 13 runs off Cheyenne were earned.

Shyan Lesperance had both of Whitewater’s hits as she went 2 for 3 with 2 stolen bases.

Next up for Whitewater is a game at Evansville on Thursday, May 6th. Game time is 5:00.

The Whippets hosted Jefferson and East Troy on Tuesday evening for a triangular. Due to the overlap of sports seasons, the schools were not fielding full teams, but there were some outstanding individual Whippet performances, especially from the jumpers.

On the girls’ side, Kacie Carollo and Crystal Chan finished one and two in the long jump, Kindyl Kilar and Crystal Chan finished one and two in the high jump, and Amanda Tovar and Jenna Caldwell went one and two in the pole vault. Kindyl Kilar and Kacie Carollo also finished one and two in the 200 M Dash.

On the boys’ side, Jon Aron took the high jump, and Aaron Porras finished first in the 200 M Dash.
