Casper Softball Teams Finally Begin the Season
After more than a few weather-related delays, Natrona and Kelly Walsh finally got in the diamond and started the 2023 softball season.
It was windy out there at Crossroads Park, and Natrona got out of the gate with an 11-10 win over Worland in 8 innings. NC trailed in that game at one point 8-0 and scored 5 times in the 6th inning and twice in the bottom of the 8th to pick up the win.
Game two of the doubleheader is not an official game for various reasons. WyoPreps received word from NC head coach Rick Robinson. The Fillies are 1-0 on the year, and Worland falls to 0-3.
Kelly Walsh started the season with a 14-2 loss to Cody as the Fillies had a 7-run lead after 2 innings of play. Both of these programs qualified for the state tournament a year ago. Cody is 3-0 this season, while the Trojans are 0-1.
The second game of the twin-bill did not count as an official game. WyoPreps checked with KW head coach Claire Smith to verify.
On Thursday afternoon, Natrona will play Cody and Kelly Walsh will take on Worland with the first game of the doubleheaders beginning at 3:30. We have some photos to share from the season-opening games on Wednesday and they can be found in our gallery below. Enjoy!
