Like Teflon to opposing fastpitch teams, the South Whidbey High School girls blanked two more teams in the past week to move to 15-0 on the season.
Extending their streak of shutouts to 15, the Falcons hammered Blaine 13-0 Friday at home, then went on the road Monday to put Meridian in its place for the second time this season, 3-0.
Friday’s home game was a treat for dozens of fans who came out for a sunny afternoon ball game. After going three-and-out in the first inning, South Whidbey took ownership of the batter’s box, hammering 10 runs in the second. After loading the bases, the first South Whidbey run scored on a Jenna Dunsmore sacrifice fly. Then, the Falcons started a two-out rally, sparked by a Teah Wanamaker hit that scored Kelsey Broderick. Junior Carrie Anderson then then cleared two more off the bases with a triple, and came home herself on a Becky Gabelein single. Also scoring in the inning were Carolann Lubach, Bronwyn Russell, and Danielle Burton.
The Falcons scored three more in the third inning on a Christie Robinson triple.
Robinson did double duty in the game, keeping her perfect record on the mound in tact, throwing a two-hit shutout.
In Monday’s game, Robinson threw her third no-hitter of the season. Scoring for the team were Dunsmore in the second on an Anderson RBI, Burton in the sixth on an Alea Robertson double, and Russell on a Robinson hit.
Thus far this season, the Falcons have scored 100 runs and allowed none.
