Taylor Coffelt Collects Three Hits; NEN Avenges Mustang Loss

Northeast Nodaway avenged its early season loss to North Nodaway as they won 8-4 Thursday. Taylor Coffelt collected three hits for Danny Smith's Bluejays as they snapped two game losing streak. Some teams, after playing Jefferson, lie down and play dead for the next few games; however, Northeast did the opposite as they turned around and played their best softball of the year.

Taylor Coffelt got the hot hand for Northeast, collecting three hits in the victory. Alicia Smith continued her hot hitting streak, collecting two more for four in her last two games. Talina Nelson was also 2 for 4, getting two doubles; a freshman, Makayla Adwell also collected two hits. Dallis Coffelt pitched and got the win and added a double for Northeast.

David Carroll's Mustangs got some heavy hits, but they were not enough. Madison Thomson hit a home run, her first of the year; MaKayla Cross added a triple and Keagan O'Riley added a double. Breann O'Riley was 3 for 4, while Keagan O'Riley was 2 for 4 and Audrey Trimble was 2 for 3.

It was a close 2-2 game until the sixth inning, when Northeast plated five runs in the sixth to take control of the game. North Nodaway scored two in the bottom of the seventh to make things interesting, but it was not enough.
