MANLY — The fifth-ranked (Class 1A) St. Edmond softball team made quick work out of Central Springs here Thursday night, posting an 11-0 victory in four innings.

Ella Vandi continued her hot streak at the plate, bashing a home run while going 2-for-2 with three RBI and two runs scored for the Gaels (17-3 overall), who have won five in a row and seven of eight.

Toryn Helle was 2-for-3 with three RBI and a run scored, as Faith Shirbroun drove in two and scored twice.

Jade Rock also crossed home twice. Rihanna Myers added two hits, an RBI and a stolen base.

“I thought our offense did a really nice job of being aggressive at the plate,” SEHS head coach Bill Shirbroun said. “Scoring four in the first set the tone, and we finished it off with six in the fourth.”

That was more than enough support for Breckyn Ulrich, as she pitched a one-hitter, striking out five with one walk.

Sophia Schlienz added a hit, an RBI and a run scored, as Ulrich also had a hit and scored a run. Grace Schlegel and Baylor Ulrich each scored once.

“Breckyn did a nice job of hitting her spots and mixing up her pitches,” Shirbroun said. “Once again, our defense backed her up by not committing an error.”

St. Edmond now heads to the Jack North Tournament hosted by Waukee Northwest on Friday and Saturday. The Gaels will face Urbandale at 3 p.m. and No. 11 (5A) Bettendorf at 4:45 p.m. Friday, followed by seventh-ranked (5A) Pleasant Valley at 2:15 p.m. and No. 6 (5A) Southeast Polk at 4 p.m. Saturday.
