10-4A SOFTBALL WEEKEND ROUNDUP: Poteet posts 4-2 record at Wylie Tournament
By DEVIN HASSON, dhasson@starlocalnews.com
Poteet geared up for the start of 10-4A play by winning four of its six games last week at the Wylie Tana Jo Thomason Tournament.
The Pirates closed the event on a sour note with an 11-2 loss to Wylie on Saturday but there were plenty of highlights in the previous games.
Poteet had romped over Irving MacArthur earlier in the day with a 23-1 win.
Cassie Vasquez got the win on the mound, part of a run of three straight games where she gave up only a single run.
On Friday, she scattered 11 hits and the offense did just enough in a 3-1 win over Rockwall. Shelby Wilson had two hits, including a double, and two runs batted in, while Yannetti had a double and a RBI.
They also scored four runs in the first inning in an 8-1 victory over Garland. Wilson had a double and a pair of RBIs, with Vasquez, Hannah Jobson and Amy Krause also drove in runs.
Poteet got off to a slow start on Thursday, managing only hits from Selena Mendoza and Jobson in a 7-0 loss to Plano East.
But the Pirates heated up in the second contest as they rolled over Rowlett in an 11-2 win. Poteet took charge from the start, grabbing a 9-0 lead through three innings. Jobson had two hits and three RBIs while Mendoza had three hits and a run batted in.
Vasquez struck out four in five innings and also drove in a pair of runs.
The Pirates (10-7) will hope to start district play on the right foot on Tuesday when they face crosstown rival West Mesquite.
