I'm Phil Nia with sports. The Richland Center softball team won a pitcher's duel over
peccatonica, won nothing on Thursday night in Richland Center. Hornet freshman Kyrie Fisher

Senior Chloe Darling singled in the sixth to drive in the games only run. She along with
Carly Meaden, each had two hits. The Hornet defense turned one double play. Richland Center had six
hits on the day against peccatonica pitcher Diana Hendrickson who struck out six and did not walk
