Buhl comes back to best the Wolverines


Big innings for the Indians led to the loss of two games for the Wood River High School girls' softball team last week in Buhl.

The Indians defeated the Wolverines 5-1 and 9-7 in doubleheader softball action on Tuesday, April 8.

In the first game, the Indians scored three runs in inning six to make a comeback tough for coach Dale Martin's girls. Wolverine hurler Hannah Gove suffered the loss.

Game two was closer, with Wood River leading 4-1 until the Indians sent five runners across the plate in the fifth. Samantha Engel, who pitched for her first time in three weeks, took the loss. Martin said Engel was a "little rusty," coming back from a knee injury.

"I still believe in this team and feel we will be better in districts," said Martin.

The losses dropped the Wolverines to 5-7. The team is 0-2 in district competition.

Friday's doubleheader in Pocatello was cancelled, and the Wolverines hosted Minico Tuesday.
