Windsor/Stewardson-Strasburg blanked Altamont, 3-0 in competition Thursday.

"Grace Lemke got the loss in the circle but pitched a great game," said Altamont Coach Lindsay VanBlaricum. "She had 13 strikeouts and two walks and I'm very proud of her.

"We didn't hit the ball. We had two hits by Laila Hankins and Presley Siebert. We watched a lot of strikes tonight which is something we need to work on in the future. We are back in action Friday hosting Neoga."

The two squads played some B innings. Altamont had hits from Kaylee Lurkins, Kennedi Schultz and Justcye Higgs.
