Comanche downs Marlow

The Comanche Lady Indians won their final tune-up for the regional tournament, defeating Marlow, 7-1, in Marlow on Monday.

Comanche took a 1-0 lead in the top of the first when Raylee Chaney scored on a sacrifice bunt from Caity Blair and the Lady Indians would lead the rest of the way.

Comanche added two more runs in the top of the third before surrendering a run to Marlow in the bottom half of the inning.

That would be as close as the Lady Outlaws would get, however. Comanche got the run back in the top of the fourth and then added three more runs in the top of the seventh to close out the game.

Chaney paced the Comanche offense, going, 2-for-2 with three runs scored and an RBI. Mykayla Slovak was 2-for-3 with three RBI; Caity Blair was 1-for-3 with a run scored; and Brighton O’Connor was 1-for-4 with a run scored.

Kamrey Rendon was the winning pitcher as she gave up one run on nine hits. She struck out five and walked one.

Comanche opens regional play at home on Thursday against Jones at noon.
