Westfield picked up its first win of the season on Thursday, beating Taylor 27-0.
The game was played at Grand Park; it was supposed to be played on the Titans field but was moved due to field conditions. Taylor was still listed as the home team.
The Shamrocks scored in each inning, including eight runs in the fourth and six more in the top of the fifth. Freshman Zoe Klink hit a home run in the fifth inning, scoring three runs. She would finish the game 2-for-2 with five RBIs.
Avery Parker was 4-for-4, including a fifth-inning triple. Parker drove in four runs and scored five. Emily Revercomb was 3-for-3 with three RBIs, while Lexi Martin scored four runs.
“I think we showed a lot of focus tonight, early in the game, in really cold temperatures,” said Westfield coach Brian Revercomb. “I think they showed great focus and effort, which led to some nice early runs for us. We got better pitching in the circle tonight, which was good for us.”
The Shamrocks are 1-1 and host Carmel on Monday.
