PhotoFest! Wheatland Sweeps Laramie in Softball

The girl's softball season is underway, so you play as many games as you can while the weather allows it. Last Friday, Laramie traveled to Wheatland for a doubleheader, and in game #1, Wheatland rallied for a 12-11 win over Laramie, thanks to a double that drove in 2 runs from Ayden Coates to end the game. This was a super-competitive contest with 6 lead changes, with Laramie taking the lead in the top of the 7th on a home run by Amanda Kricken.

Wheatland won the night cap going away 19-7 and for the day. Camryn Mickelsen, a returning All-State player, hit a 3-run homer and a solo shot. Halle Mickelsen also had a 3-run homer, with Ayden Coates going yard, as well. So far in the young season, Wheatland is 6-1 and will host Cheyenne East on Friday and visit Cheyenne Central on Saturday. Laramie is 5-3 this season and will be on the road in Sweetwater County on Friday and Saturday to take on Rock Springs and Green River.
