By DAVID SEELEY Sports Editor

The Roland Lady Rangers opened the first week of the 2025 fastpitch softball season at 3-2.

After having their opening-day games in the Sequoyah-Tahlequah Festival canceled on Aug. 11, the Lady Rangers ended up opening their season with a 13-2 road District 3A-6 romp of the host Spiro Lady Bulldogs on Aug. 11.

On Thursday, the Lady Rangers fell 8-2 to Panama in their home opener.

In the Muldrow Festival, the Lady Rangers went 2-1, beating archrival Muldrow 8-7 on Friday night and doubling up Stilwell 4-2 on Saturday after losing Friday’s first game 4-0 to Vian.

In the win over Spiro, the Lady Rangers (3-2 overall, 1-0 in district play) scored three runs in each of the first two innings for a 6-0 lead. After the Lady Bulldogs cut their deficit to 6-1 after three innings, the Lady Rangers put away the game with a pair of two-run innings in the fifth and sixth innings for a 10-1 lead. A threerun seventh inning iced the contest.

For the game, Lillian Cole was 4-for-5 with two doubles, three runs batted in and a run scored, Paisley Davis was 3-for-4 with a double, three RBIs and two runs scored, Kyleigh Knapp was 3-for-5 with four RBIs and a run scored, Adriana Moya was 2-for-4 with two runs scored and an RBI for Roland.

McKinna Cooper (32) got the win, getting seven strikeouts and throwing a three-hitter.

In the loss to Panama, the Lady Razorbacks rallied from a 2-1 deficit with a seven-run fifth inning.

In defeat, Davis doubled, while Adriana Moya and Addyson Clark singled for Roland. Cooper took the loss, getting two strikeouts in seven innings.

In the win over Muldrow, the Lady Rangers broke a 7-all tie on Davis’ two-out, RBI double in the fifth inning.

Davis was 3-for-3 with a double, two RBIs and two runs scored, Cole was 3-for-3 with two RBIs and a run scored, Moya was 2-for-4 with two runs scored, Knapp was 2-for-4 with an RBI, Laynie Roedenbeck was 2-for-3 and Clark hit a solo home run for Roland. Cooper got the win.

In the loss to Vian, Cassidee Postoak threw a two-hitter, with those hits being a double apiece from Aubriana Gragg and Davis. Cooper suffered the loss, despite getting four strikeouts.

In the win over Stilwell, the Lady Rangers broke a 2-all tie with single runs in the third and fourth innings.
