Eagles grab first region win of '06
by Jason Stone

DVUSD - Sandra Day O'Connor's softball team played only one game last week. But that game was perfect.

The Eagles won their first Northwest Region game of the season March 28 when they blanked Goldwater 11 0 in a "10 run rule" game on the road.
 
The victory was a boost to the Eagles, who had lost their first two region games to Mountain Ridge in mid March. Kaleigh Sorce went 3 for 3 and Kirsten Linert was the winning pitcher with 13 strikeouts.

O'Connor was trying to build on the win with two games against Boulder Creek and one against Deer Valley this week. The first ever varsity games against Boulder Creek will be a home and home series with the Eagles scheduled to host April 4. The April 7 game is at Boulder Creek.

O'Connor (9 8 1 overall) will also host Deer Valley April 5. First pitch is 3:45 p.m. for all games.
