Having already thrown a no-hitter this season, Indian Lake pitching standout Jill Wildermuth went a step further Monday by firing a perfect game to lead the Lakers past host Greenon 11-0 in five innings in a Central Buckeye Conference matchup.

The Lakers improve their record to 18-3 overall and 11-2 in the CBC.

Wildermuth struck out six and also had three hits for the offense.

“Jill pitched a great game,” said Lakers’ head coach Scott Cramer. “Our defense did an outstanding job behind her.”

Indian Lake built a 3-0 lead after three innings and plated eight runs in the top of the fourth inning to secure the win.

Adding two hits each for the Laker offense were Michelle Herren, Jessica Lininger, Chelsea Cramer and Becca Cooper.

Raiders get another league win

Benjamin Logan’s softball team earned its sixth straight Central Buckeye Conference victory Monday with a 7-5 win over host Graham.

The Raiders are now 9-11 overall and 6-7 in the CBC.

“We got off to a good start,” said Raider head coach Ron Smith. “We got people on base and were able to hit them in. Our defense was also good and we had a lot of solid hits.”
