Rockets fall to foe

ESCANABA — The Rapid River softball team fell 12-2 to the Marshfield, Wis. Tigers here Friday during the Escanaba Invitational.

The Rockets scored their runs on a homer from Kristen Goodacre that also pushed Cecelia Pilon across the plate.

Natalie Belanger took the loss over seven innings.

She gave up 18 hits and one walk while striking out seven. Goodacre finished with two hits and two RBIs. Belanger also collected two hits.

“We showed some progress with reducing mistakes and getting the bat on the ball … against a tough team,” Rockets’ coach George Kaynuh said. “However, we are still not where we need to be.”

Rapid River faces Gladstone at 1 p.m. and Norway at 3 p.m. today at Escanaba.
