Oxford softball celebrates their three graduating seniors
OXFORD – Oxford suffered a devastating loss of 20-2 at the hands of Hancock High School this past Tuesday, May 3.
Prior to the beginning of the game, Oxford honored their three graduating seniors, Emilee Eldred, Rachel Seiler, and Corbin Wright.
Following graduation, some plans for each of the seniors were shared. For Eldred, she plans to pursue employment in the public relations field. Seiler has elected to attend SUNY Cortland next fall, and pursue a degree in Physical Education, while Wright plans on attending SUNY Delhi this coming fall, to pursue a degree as a Veterinary Technician.
Hancock would not grant Oxford an easy outing however, as they managed a magnificent first inning scoring 13 -runs to Oxford's 0.
“They started off really strong, they were hitting everything tonight,” said Oxford head coach Heather Pizza.
Despite being down 13-0 in just the first inning, Oxford stayed resilient and managed a run in the second inning when Raigen Ehly knocked a solo home run to left field.
“Our girls were hitting shots, they just were able to field them. Their short stop did an excellent job she was really instrumental,” said Pizza.
Pizza also explained that Hancock had no big shots in the game, as they limited the away team to just single shots, something Hancock took full advantage of even with the limitations.
Allison Beckwith managed to make it home for the Blackhawks when she reached a base off her single in the fourth inning, only to reach home on a wild pitch shortly after.
Emilee Eldred stood on the mound for Oxford to begin the game throwing out 51 pitches in the first inning on her senior night before being relieved by Allison Beckwith who pitched the remainder of the game. Beckwith managed to strikeout two batters while only walking three.
Batting for Oxford saw Kylie Roys go 1-3, Allison Beckwith at 1-1 with a run, Raigen Ehly go 1-2 with a run and an RBI, and Layla Kriz go 1-1.
“We have three seniors coming back again next year and we will have a lot of kids coming up from eighth grade,” said Pizza. “We're on the way up, it is just a slow process.”
Saturday the Oxford varsity softball team will be heading to Vestal to watching Binghamton University play softball against Hartford.
Oxford, now sitting at 3-9 overall, is not scheduled to play another game until next Monday, May 9. However, as of now it is unsure who they will face off against in this game.
Score: 1 2 3 4 5- Final
Hancock:13 0 0 4 3- 20
Oxford: 0 1 0 1 0- 2
