The Okaw Valley softball team finished the week 1-2 with a win against Paris and losses to Effingham St. Anthony and Arthur-Lovington/Atwood-Hammond.

Saturday against Paris in game one of a double header, the Timberwolves scored three runs in the first inning and two in the third and fourth innings to take a 7-1 lead.

Paris scored two and OV tacked on another for the 8-3 win.

“I was impressed with how we started the game with a strong rally,” said Dave Benning. “We had contributions up and down the lineup and built on our lead throughout the game. I thought we could have added more in the sixth and seventh innings when we left the bases loaded.”

In the first, Grace Harlin led off the game with a double to right center.      Login or Subscribe to read the rest of this story.
