Kalia Friese went 2-3 with two runs scored and combined with Kendra Hayes to strike out 3, and walk none, as the Windsor-Stewart-Strasburg Hatchets got past the Central A&M Raiders on Wednesday evening in Moweaqua as they picked up a 7-6 win. 

The Hatchets broke through in the second inning after Makenna Corrie hit a towering fly ball that hit the top of the fence line and ricocheted back in play.  The very next play Kalia Friese hit one out to the same location that Shelby Younker struggled to corral, which scorred Corrie.  A base hit from Clarissa Johnson scored Friese to give the Hatchets a 2-0 lead.  The Hatchets would add another run in the third on a weird place where Mya Friese would steal home on a wild sequence. 

The Raiders would lead off the first three innings with base hits but wouldn't be able to capitalize until that third inning when Callie Robertson and Olivia Kerby would have back to back base hits.  Ryleigh Hazelwonder would get the Raiders on the board with a bases clearing double and Kayle McPeak would add on with a base hit of her own.  Wesleigh Cochran would add another base hit and Brooklyn Jackson would get her home with a double and the Raiders would stand on top with a 5-3 lead at the end of 3 as they would send 9 to the plate. 

Their lead would be short lived however, as the Hatchets would respond with four of their own in the fourth with sending 8 of their own to the plate with a walk to Makenna Corrie, a base hit to Friese, a Fielders choice to Arora Rincker, followed by a walk to Clarissa Johnson, and a base hit to Cameron Carey plated four and the Hatchets would jump back up by two with a 7-5 lead going into the bottom of the 4th. 

The Raiders would cut the lead to one, with a double from Kayle McPeak and a base hit from Kylee Sneerly. Aggressiveness on the base paths would cut down Sneerly as a double play on Cochran's line drive to the Hatchet's Clarissa Johnson and a strike out to Clarissa Johnson ended the rally for the Raiders. 

The Raiders would get a triple from Callie Robertson in the sixth with only one out, but Olivia Kerby would line out to first, and Shelby Younker would strike out to end the inning and the Raiders wouldn't be able to capitalize in the seventh. 

The Raiders fall to 7-8 and the Hatchets improve to 10-4.  Central A&M will face Clinton on the road on Friday evening. Kayla McPeek was named the Seitz Funeral Home Player of the Game.
