Lauren Quirke delivers the pitch to batterymate Allie Stines

SOU swept George Fox University today in an away doubleheader. The second game, with a final score of 1-0, featured a seven-inning perfect game thrown by Lauren Quirke. Allie Stines had three hits and scored the only run for the Raiders in that game. Obviously, the above photo is not from today’s game as there is a runner on first. No one reaches first in a perfect game.

Mt. Ashland and the Almeda Fire from the Bear Creek Greenway

The Greenway has been far from green, until the last few days, since the Almeda Fire back in September. This area has been completely black for five months. But nature is healing itself and spring is on the way.

Today was supposed to be the first home softball games of the season. However, the games were shifted to Redding and then cancelled altogether when the field conditions worsened over the week. The new home opener (without fans) for the #1-ranked Raiders is scheduled for March 18.
