Girls Varsity Softball wins 6-5 against Selma Bears on Mar. 9, 2024. On a Saturday morning, the school was deserted but the softball field was alive… White and Black cleats pressed into the field and a sea of pin-striped colored jerseys swarmed as the PRHS Women’s Varsity Softball team stepped onto the pitch to face the Selma Bears for the first time this season, making this their 7th game of their season.
The game was a difficult battle as the game was neck and neck for seven innings. Adding to the difficulty, Selma High School has a player committed D1 to Texas A&M University. Being the star player for the Bears, she scored two home runs, one in the third and one in the sixth.
By the 6th inning, Selma was up 3-1 and at the bottom of the 6th, the Bearcats secured 5 runs. In the 6th, Aalia Torres (12) took a swing and got on 1st base, Isabelle Murphy (9) hit a single putting Torres on second and her on first. Kylee Nancolas (11) then hit a double which took Torres and Murphy home, securing the Lady Bearcats with a 6-3 lead. Giving Bears redemption in the 7th inning, they only secured two runs ending the game at the top of the 7th and the Bearcats took the win.
