The Goshen RedHawks varsity softball team watched the game slip away early and couldn’t recover in a 6-0 loss to the Elkhart Lions on Friday.

Emma Detwiler lead the offense with 2 hits for the night. The RedHawks are now 5-2 overall.
The Goshen RedHawks varsity softball team lost the lead late in the game for a 8-6 defeat to Fairfield on Saturday.

Goshen’s Chase Meyer was the Invitational low medalist as he fired an even par 72 over the course at Black Squirrel.
The Goshen RedHawks dropped both games of Saturday’s double header to LaPorte High School by the scores of 14-0 and 15-3. 1 bad inning in each game was the detriment of the RedHawks during those games. The Slicers were able to have a 10 run 5th inning in the first game and a 14 run 2nd inning during the second game, creating two very lopsided games.
In game 1, Noah Meikle pitched for the RedHawks. He pitched 4.1 innings, giving up 5 earned runs on 5 hits. He struck out 1 batter and walked 5. Offensively, there wasn’t much to highlight. The RedHawks were held to 2 hits, one from Reece Fisher and one from Thomas Castillo. Castillo was able to steal 2 bases during the contest.
In game 2, the RedHawks had bright spots on the mound from Ezequiel Moreno who pitched 4 relief innings and only surrendered 1 earned run. On offense, the RedHawks were led by Reece Fisher again who had 2 doubles and 2 runs batted in. Isaiah Park also drew a walk that scored Mitch Daniels for the 3rd RedHawk run.
The RedHawks look to turn things around when they open up conference play on Monday April 19. That game is a home game and set to start at 5pm at Phend Field.
The RedHawks finished 2nd in the Goshen Round Robin going 2-1 in the tournament. Seniors Lucy Kramer, Joya Drenth, and Kathryn Detweiler were all undefeated to each improve to 5-0 this season. The girls are back in action Monday at Northridge.
