From top scoring in game one to back-to-back one-run victories, fans took in spectacular softball with 12 games featuring eight teams at the Wayne Softball Complex on Saturday.
The host Blue Devils began with a 12-0 shutout win in three innings over Ord followed by a 6-5 win against Centura/Central Valley in six innings (scored five runs in home half of sixth) and a 1-0 championship win over Twin River.
The highlights of the tourney came from senior pitcher/first baseman Jordyn Gamble on back-to-back walk-off hits.
First in the Centura/Central Valley game, Gamble used a three RBI triple before ending Saturday with a RBI single against Twin River.
Wayne High is now 3-1 on the season and will next play three straight on the road.
WHS will visit O'Neill on Tuesday, August 26, travel to Tekamah-Herman on Thursday, August 28 and play at Bishop Neumann on Tuesday, September 2.
Wayne's next home game will be on Thursday, September 4 against South Sioux City.
More highlights including comments from coach Rob Sweetland and Gamble as well as pictures can be found in the August 28 edition of the Wayne Herald.
