Woolley sparks Lakeland sweep
Coeur d'Alene Press | UPDATED 10 years, 8 months AGO
RATHDRUM - Shayna Woolley hit a three-run walkoff home run in the first game and Kari Prockish hit a grand slam in the first inning of the second for the host Lakeland Hawks, which swept a 4A Inland Empire League doubleheader against the Sandpoint Bulldogs 10-9 and 22-8 on Saturday afternoon to conclude the regular season.
In the Region 1 tournament, Lakeland (9-12, 4-4 4A IEL) will be the second seed and face Sandpoint (3-16, 0-8), the third seed, again on Tuesday at Ghormley Park in Moscow at 3 p.m., with the winner facing top seed Moscow at 5.
"I was really happy with our team for getting the bats going in the first game," Lakeland coach Colleen Bevacqua said. "Hopefully that leads us into Tuesday and we can keep it going. We had to battle into the seventh inning and pull it out, and it carried into the second game. We've got a tough road ahead, but I'm excited to see what we've got in store on Tuesday."
Reilly Williams hit a three-run home run in the fourth inning for Lakeland.
Lucinda Calvert had three hits on the day for Sandpoint.
