Softball:
It’s been said the true measure of one’s character is the way they respond to failure.
One day after a disappointing one-run loss to Bonita, the Glendora softball program scored three runs in the top of the seventh inning at Ayala in a 5-3 victory.
It’s the Bulldogs (7-1) first Palomares League setback in 2021.
Emily Leavitt went the distance and picked up the loss.
Leavitt was charged with five runs (four earned) on eight hits.
She didn’t walk anyone and struck out 12 GHS batters.
Ashley Waite went 3-for-4, with a double, RBI and two runs scored.
Haley Ganino and Allie Winovitch singled and scored.
Ashley Hibbard singled, doubled and drove in three runs.
Watch Hibbard’s double just below:
