Monterey defeats Acadiana, falls to Westminster Christian to go 2-1 at OPHS Tournament

MONROE, La. — The Monterey Lady Wolves got a strong pitching performance from Paige Bryan in an 8-4 win over the Acadiana Lady Rams Saturday morning at the Ouachita Parish High School Tournament on the campus of the University of Louisiana at Monroe.

Bryan allowed four runs on just five hits, struck out two and walked three. She also went 2-for-4 with a pair of doubles. Bailey New hit a solo home run in the top of the first inning and she also went 2-for-3.

After Acadiana scored two runs in the bottom of the second inning, Monterey responded with two runs in the top of the third inning and three in the top of the fourth for a 6-2 lead. The Lady Rams made it a 6-4 game in the bottom of the sixth before the Lady Wolves answered with two runs of their own in the top of the seventh.

The second game of the game didn’t fare so well for Monterey as it lost to the Westminster Christian Lady Crusaders 14-2. Despite the lopsided score, the game went seven innings because Westminster Christian was unable to run-rule Monterey earlier in the game.

Bryan was charged with the loss after going four innings. Karlee Woodruff went the final three innings for the Lady Wolves.

In its game Friday night, Monterey got a three-run home run from Woodruff in the bottom of the first inning and that was all the offense the Lady Wolves needed in a 3-1 win over the Franklin Parish Lady Patriots.

Monterey (7-6) hosts Rapides at 4 p.m. on Tuesday.
