Wolcott softball took a special trip this past week to Florida to play games at the ESPN Wide World of Sports (Disney World). The Eagles return home with a 6-1 record.
Wolcott won two out of the three official games its played at Disney. Here’s what happened in each game:

Wolcott had four hits in the game, including a single and two RBI from Kayla Nuelan. Abby Sullivan and Jade Abdul-Lateef had singled and scored a run. Katie Cosmos, Kaitlyn Ouellette and Kennedy White each scored a run, and Josie Cammarata doubled.
Ouellette pitched a complete game. She gave up three runs (one earned) on seven hits and struck out 11.
