Softball Adds Three More Wins, Improves to 8-1
Triton Softball continued a successful start to the 2018 campaign, winning three of four games at Bellevue College this past weekend against South region opponents Chemeketa CC and Southwestern Oregon CC. On Saturday Edmonds topped Chemeketa 13-5 in six innings and later drubbed Southwestern Oregon 9-1 (6). The SWOCC Lakers handed the Tritons their first loss of the season on Sunday, 6-4, but Edmonds responded with a blow out 21-1 (5) victory over Chemeketa.
Softball is now 8-1 as they prepare for the Inter-Region Tournament this weekend at the Regional Athletic Complex in Lacey. When the schedule is released, we will announce it on our social media.
Softball Returns from Richland 5-0
Edmonds College softball started the 2018 slate in perfect fashion, taking five wins in the NWAC Preseason Crossover Tournament in Richland. The Tritons downed Big Bend (15-8) and Columbia Basin (11-7) Saturday, and won three more games on Sunday: Yakima (8-0), Walla Walla (6-3), and Blue Mountain (13-3). Freshman Riley Sykes threw a no-hitter against Yakima, and sophomore hurler Seli Aholelei had an 11-strikeout gem against Walla Walla on Sunday.

Bleachers have not yet been installed so plan to bring chairs if you're headed to the games this weekend. Any weather-related changes will be announced via the Edmonds College athletics twitter (@edmondstritons).

Tournament qualifiers from a year ago in Fall Classic games against Chemeketa and
Clackamas. The four Triton sophomores who participated in the showcase were (pictured
