Battery Creek softball saw its losing streak hit six games with a pair of losses to Woodland in non-region games last week, but the Dolphins bounced back with a 5-3 home win over West Ashley on Monday.

After throwing their best punch at region leaders Beaufort and Hanahan and losing heartbreakers in the finales of both series, the Dolphins were overmatched in 9-3 and 12-1 losses to the Wolverines, but they rebounded with a strong effort Monday against the Wildcats.

Stella Schubert had one of her better outings of the season, going the distance while allowing three runs on nine hits. She struck out only one batter, but the Dolphins played error-free defense behind her, and Brooke Crosby went 2-for-3 with a double and two RBIs, driving in the go-ahead run with a single to cap a three-run fifth inning.

The teams meet again Wednesday before Battery Creek travels to Colleton County on Thursday.
