Okmulgee County fastpitch softball teams Dewar and Wilson came away with perfect 4-0 records at last week’s Wilson Softball Festival.

The four wins for the host Wilson Lady Tigers came against Mounds (5-3) and Earlsboro (8-0) last Thursday and Porter (4-1) and Wetumka (62) last Friday.

The Dewar Lady Dragons began their journey towards a spotless festival record last Thursday with shutout wins over Mounds (9-0) and Porter (150), then earned wins over Mason (10-0) and Earlsboro (21-1) on Friday.

Both county squads were in action Monday with Dewar hosting Weleetka and Wilson traveling to Wewoka. The two county teams went to battle on Tuesday at Wilson, while Dewar closed out the week at the Depew Tournament Thursday- Saturday. In Dewar’s opening festival game last Thursday against Mounds, the Lady Dragons opened the scoring with two runs in the top of the first. The Dewar squad added a run in each of the next three innings and four in the fifth for a 9-0 advantage.

The other Dewar base hits came on singles by Brailee England and Jaycie Berry, RBI single by Alyssa Baughman, 2-run single by Bre Harvell, and 2-run home run by Kinsey Maldonado. Maldonado’s roundtripper came in the 4-run fifth.

Other baserunners for the Lady Dragons in the shutout win over Mounds were Thomas (walk), Harvell (walk), England (walk), and Baughman (walk).

In Dewar’s run-rule win over Porter last Thursday, the Lady Dragons opened the scoring with seven runs in the bottom of the first, then added eight in the second for the 15-0 decision.

The top offensive performers for Dewar against Porter were Kinsey Maldonado (3 for 3, single, double, home run, 4 RBIs) and Brooke Thomas (3 for 3, 3 singles, 2 RBIs) with three hits each. Maldonado’s home run came on a 2-run blast in the second.
