Bainbridge-Guilford Softball defeats Unatego 12-2 on Monday

BAINBRIDGE – The Bainbridge-Guilford lady Bobcats showed dominance to close out the season on with two wins this week.

On Monday, May 1, Bainbridge-Guilford hosted the Unatego lady Spartans – crushing them at 12-2.

Unatego jumped to a one run lead after the first only to see B-G take full control with a tying run in the second, followed by a four run inning in the fifth. With the life drained from the Spartans, B-G turned a 5-2 competitive game into a blowout – adding seven runs in the bottom of the sixth inning.

Megan Palmatier finished 3-4 with two doubles, two runs and two RBI. Kori Thornton finished 2-3 with two runs and one RBI. Jillian Cannistra finished 3-4 with one run and one RBI, while Kassidy Davy went 2-2 with one run and one RBI – Ashley Matthews added a day going 1-2 with three runs and two RBI.

Pitching the entire inning – allowing just six hits – was Thornton. Thornton proceeded to strikeout 11 Unatego batters in the process.

With one remaining game on the regular season schedule, the lady Bobcats were looking to finish with the best regular season record in Bainbridge-Guilford school history.

“Tomorrow is our last league game against Greene,” said Bainbridge-Guilford head coach Randy Palmatier. “We will not win the league. Deposit has not lost a league game. And they beat us. It’s our one loss.”
