Olivia Grey made quite the varsity debut for the Woodland softball team.
Grey tossed a complete-game no-hitter, striking out 13 batters in the Beavers’ 4-0 non-league win over Prairie on Monday in Woodland.
Grey, a transfer from Kalama, threw 19 first-pitch strikes to the 24 batters she faced over seven innings.
Second-year coach Tom Christiansen said Grey’s precense in the circle changes the whole dynamnic for Woodland, a team that went 6-15 last season.
“Everyone is a lot more relaxed and the defense isn’t overworked,” he said. “The girls have a lot more confidence we can win any game.”
Woodland pounded out six hits and led 3-0 early. Carleigh Risley went 2-for-3 with an RBI.
