"We went through two pitchers and when they were making the pitches that we needed defense fell apart," Head Coach Shane Albury said. "So it was a combination of lack of pitching and a lack of defense.”

Lashanda Bethell went 2-4 with 2 RBI’s and 3 runs for the Wildcats. Shera Woodside also went 2-4 with 2 RBI’s and 2 runs. Donnette Edwards went 2-3 with 3 RBI’s and 1 run.

Stubbs, Jodie Clarke, and Charlene Symonette all went 1-3 for the Mingoes.
The Mingoes play The Truckers 7pm Tuesday at The Bankers Field at the Baillou Hills Sporting Complex.
