Softball Women Struggle vs. Caney
By:  Curtis Wampler

Caney, KS - 

The Invasion women packed their gloves, bats, helmets, and an overnite bag and headed East to play a double header against Caney Valley.   The team was scheduled to play two games at Caney followed by two games against Tyro Christian the next day.  

 

In game one Derby bats were overwhelmed by the Caney pitcher, managing only a single runner over the course of the entire five innings – and that on a walk to Melody Bloyer.   Caney on the other hand, started quickly sending 13 batters to the plate, scoring 6 runs in the first inning on the way to an 11-0 win.

 

In game two Derby was determined to get on the board quickly – Renae Bergen led off with a single and Jewels Wampler followed with a double but was cut down trying to stretch it to a triple. Renae scored on the play giving the Invasion a 1-0 lead.   Next up Kay Denton hit a triple of her own and scored on a wild pitch and the ladies from Derby took a 2-0 lead into the bottom of the first inning.

 

Caney was not about to give up after just one half of an inning and tied the score 2-2 in the bottom of the first.   After a quiet 2nd inning the Derby bats came back to life in the 3rd when Kay drove in Renae again on another single taking a 3-2 lead.   Unfortunately, after that the Invasion bats were silent and the Caney women scored five in the 3rd and a final run in the 4th with the game ending in favor of Caney 8-3.
