The Libby Loggers softball team home opener was a success with the hosts beating Eureka, 12-2, in six innings Thursday evening at Remp Field.
The Loggers collected 10 hits, including four for extra bases, and were never truly threatened. Winning pitcher Paislee MacDonald had an excellent game. She was 2-for-4 with two runs batted in. In the circle, she struck out nine Lady Lions, walked just one and allowed only two runs on three hits. None of the runs were earned. Of her 91 pitches, 58 went for strikes.
Eureka scored first in the top of the first, but the Loggers answered back with four runs in the bottom of the frame. Libby added one run in the second inning to make it 5-1.
