Chautauqua Lake Softball Team Dominates Clymer/Sherman in League Play

In a thrilling match-up between the Chautauqua Lake Eagles and Clymer/Sherman Wolves, the Eagles emerged victorious with a dominant 7-2 win in Chautauqua-Cattaraugus Athletic Association Division 2 West league play.

Pitcher Cayzlee Johnson led the charge for Chautauqua Lake, delivering an outstanding performance in the circle. Johnson’s stellar pitching combined with a strong offensive showing propelled the Eagles to their first league win of the season.

Head coach Katherine Yudin praised Johnson’s consistency on the mound, emphasizing the importance of staying ahead in the count and throwing strikes. The Eagles’ offense came alive with big hits from Lucy Gates, who blasted a home run and an RBI triple, and Johnson, who added a home run of her own.

With standout performances from young players like Alice Scarpine and Kinslee Motter, the future looks bright for the Chautauqua Lake softball team. As they continue to grow and develop, the Eagles are poised for success in the competitive Division 2 West league.

Overall, it was a well-deserved win for Chautauqua Lake, marking a strong start to their league campaign. With a combination of solid pitching, timely hitting, and strong team chemistry, the Eagles are ready to take on whatever challenges come their way in the season ahead.
