GRADISHAR AND THE FLASHES STILL FLEXING

RAVENNA OH- Gabrielle Gradishar was flat-out dealing Tuesday, racking up 14 punchouts as Champion took down Southeast 4-1 on the road.

The Flashes wasted no time getting on the board. In the top of the first, Taylor Rouan ripped a single down the line and Jonna Strock drew a bases-loaded walk—just like that, it was 2-0.

Rouan wasn’t done either. She finished 2-for-3 with two RBIs, providing the spark in the heart of the order. Adalyn McIntosh was locked in too, going 3-for-4 at the dish.

Gradishar did the rest. The ace gave up just two hits and one run across seven innings, walking one and fanning 14 in a dominant outing.

Champion’s patience paid off—they drew six walks on the day, with Ava Sylvester and Gradishar each grabbing a pair.

These two teams run it back Friday, this time at Champion.
