Kenton Ridge, Tippecanoe meet to decide league
TIPP CITY — Kenton Ridge and Tippecanoe are on hot streaks no other Central Buckeye Conference team has matched this season. On Monday, they’ll bring the heat on each other.
Kenton Ridge travels to Tippecanoe on Monday for the first of a two-game series that will decide the CBC Kenton Trail Division title.
The Cougars (20-2) have won their last nine games and are in second place in the Kenton Trail with a 12-1 conference record. Tippecanoe (19-4) has won 13 games in a row and is in first place in the league with a 13-0 conference record. Kenton Ridge is ranked fifth in Division II in the Ohio High School Fastpitch Softball Coaches’ Association poll, while Tippecanoe is ranked seventh.
Hot-hitting Kenton Ridge wins seventh straight game
Cougars get 11 hits in 3-0 win over Northwestern and improve to 18-2 on the season.
SPRINGFIELD — Kenton Ridge senior catcher Paige McCrary had 11 straight hits entering the Cougars’ Central Buckeye Conference crossover game at Northwestern last night. McCrary got the streak to 12 with a single in the first inning before she grounded out in each of her last three at-bats in the game.
But despite McCrary’s subpar day at the plate, the Cougars had no problems getting on base. Kenton Ridge had 11 hits in a 3-0 win over the Warriors.
That’s been the key to Kenton Ridge’s success this season according to fourth year head coach Sarah Ivory — even if a few players aren’t hitting, the rest are.
