Mike Vukovcan Any team heading into the playoffs would like to do so on a roll and that’s certainly the case with the Hopewell HS Girls Softball team.
The Lady Vikings closed out their regular season this afternoon at home against Sewickley Academy and walked way with a 13-0 victory. With the win, Hopewell finishes the season on a 5-game winning streak and have won 6 of their last 7 games.
Because of the lopsided score, the game only went 5 innings and Hopewell only got 4 at-bats.
It was only hitting that on the last home game for Hopewell seniors that two of them had huge games.
Senior sluggers Victoria Mann and Kara Barkovic had huge game going a combined 5 for 7 with 2 HR and 7 RBI.
Sophomore Alana Covalt continued her hot hitting going 2-4, with 2 runs and 2 RBI.
On the mound, Covalt and Allison Ramaley combined to go 5 innings, allowing just 3 hits, 0 runs and 6 strikeouts.
Next up for Hopewell is a first round playoff matchup on Tuesday night against Southmoreland.
