It’s not often that in one inning with one hit, a team can score five runs. But that’s exactly what happened last Wednesday in Arthur as Okaw Valley’s softball team stumbled with two errors to let Arthur-Lovington/Atwood-Hammond take a lead they wouldn’t give up.

“If you take away the one inning where we gave Arthur-Lovington five runs off one hit and two errors, we played them well,” said OV head coach Dave Benning. “You can’t give a team five runs in an inning, especially a good team like Arthur-Lovington. We were outplayed defensively in two innings, and that is what cost us.”     Login or Subscribe to read the rest of this story.
