Glide Wildcats Softball 5-14 Harrisburg

Nine runs in the final three innings proved too much to overcome as Glide fell to visiting Harrisburg 14-5 in non-league softball action Tuesday afternoon. The Wildcats managed to plate five runs against the Eagles but couldn't match Harrisburg's offensive surge that broke open what had been a competitive game through the middle innings.

Glide's bats showed life throughout the contest, collecting multiple hits and working quality at-bats against Harrisburg pitching. The Wildcats demonstrated improved plate discipline compared to earlier season outings, though defensive miscues and timely hitting by the Eagles created the decisive gap on the scoreboard.

The loss drops Glide to 2-4 on the season as they continue working through early-season growing pains. Head coach Sarah Mitchell has emphasized fundamentals and situational hitting in recent practices, elements that showed improvement despite Tuesday's final score.

The Wildcats return to action Friday when they host Oakland for a 4 p.m. first pitch. Glide will look to bounce back against familiar 2A competition and even their record before entering the heart of league play.
