Colfax's Helina Hahn had a great day batting.
COLFAX - Colfax Bulldogs softball remains undefeated after beating Davenport Gorillas at home last Saturday, 13-1 and 12-2.
Next up was a trip to Northwest Christian for a showdown against the 8-0 Crusaders.
Against Davenport, Colfax seniora Helina Hahn went 3-for-5 at-bat with a home run, a triple, and four RBIs in the doubleheader. Justice Brown was 4-for-5 at-bat with three RBIs. Others with multiple hits on the day were Anni Cox, Delaney Imler, Jorja Koerner, Rian Jones, Devan Becker, and KeiLena Nelson.
The games were called in the fourth and fifth innings due to the mercy rule.
On the mound, Delaney Imler and Karmen Akesson were credited with the wins.
"We ended up scoring more runs than I wanted to," said Colfax Coach Tracy Imler, who slowed down his runners on the base paths in the hopes to extend the Bulldogs' game experience.
Colfax (10-0) played only one full seven-inning game this season.
Koerner is expected to start on the mound against Northwest Christian.
"We're going to put our best pitcher and our best defense out against them in the first game and see how it goes," Imler said.
Colfax plays on May 8 at Liberty. Game times are noon and 2 p.m.
