IAC SOFTBALL: LAUPER LEADS WAVERLY IN PITCHER'S CIRCLE, AT PLATE IN 13-0 WIN OVER NEWARK VALLEY (18 PHOTOS) (2022-04-20)

Valley Sports Report
WAVERLY — Junior Michaela Lauper shined on the mound, and at the plate to lead Waverly in a 13-0 win over Newark Valley here Wednesday afternoon in IAC South Large School Division softball action.

Lauper fired a 2-hitter, striking out eight and walking none to earn the win in the pitcher’s circle, and was 4-for-4 at the plate, with three runs scored and three RBI to lead the Lady Wolverines’ 10-hit attack.

Lauper led off the bottom of the first with a single, and later scored on an error to give Waverly a quick 1-0 lead. The Lady Wolverines would add runs on an RBI groundout off the bat of sophomore Olivia Robinson and an RBI double by sophomore Lea VanAllen.

Waverly added three more runs in the second inning on an RBI single by Lauper, and a two-run single by senior Aubrey Ennis.

Freshman Brinn Cooney made it 7-0 with a one-out RBI single in the third inning, and Lauper extended the lead to 8-0 with an RBI single. Sophomore Peyton Shaw capped the rally with an RBI triple.

An RBI triple by Cooney and another RBI single by Lauper extended the Waverly lead to 11-0 after five innings.

Waverly tacked on two mores in the sixth inning on passed balls.

Cooney tripled and singled, scored three runs, and drove in two runs for the Lady Wolverines, while Ennis singled twice, scored two runs, and knocked in two runs, Shaw tripled, scored one run, and drove in one run, VanAllen doubled and knocked in a run, Robinson scored one run and drove in one run, and seniors Lourden Benjamin and Bella Romano each scored one run.

Waverly, now 4-1, returns to action Monday when it hosts Thomas A. Edison.
