OSWEGO — Marmaton Valley High’s softball team hauled in plenty of runs and hits in a successful road venture Monday at Oswego.
The Wildcats swept Oswego, 17-4 and 19-4, to even MV’s record at 2-2 on the season.
It took a couple of innings for Marmaton Valley’s offense to find its groove in the opener. The Wildcats were scoreless until erupting for eight runs in each of the third and fourth innings to break away.
Leading the charge was Kendall Scharff, who had a single and double, while driving in five. She also handled the pitching duties, striking out seven, while allowing four hits and three walks.
Tayven Sutton chipped in with three singles and an RBI. Aly Ard, Madi Lawson, Mary Brown and Khiana Haynes each singled twice. Brooklyn Adams and Bailey LaRue each added a single. Lawson and Haynes both had RBIs.
There was no such delay in the nightcap as the Wildcats erupted for 11 runs in the top of the first. The lead stood at 16-4 after two innings and 19-4 to end the game after three.
Sutton supported her own cause with a home run, while striking out five and allowing two hits on the mound. Aly Ard had three singles and an RBI. Adams singled twice with two RBIs. Kendall Scharff had a single and three RBIs. Payton Scharff doubled, as did Brown.
The Wildcats travel to Yates Center Thursday.
