HUMBOLDT — Four Humboldt High softball players earned Tri-Valley League honors following their successful season.
Earning Tri-Valley League First Team honors are sophomore pitcher Shelby Shaughnessy, senior catcher Emily Ross, senior shortstop Karley Wools and senior first baseman Carsyn Haviland.
Shaughnessy was a standout in the pitcher’s circle going 9-1. One of her best performances was a complete game no-hit 17-1 victory over Neodesha.
The Lady Cub also scored a team-high three runs against Cherryvale.
Ross was a cornerstone for Humboldt’s offense and defense. She has signed to play softball at Neosho Community College next season. She scored a team-high six runs in a pair of lopsided victories over Osawatomie.
Wools was always a valuable Lady Cub to have on the basepaths as the leadoff hitter as well as in the pitcher’s circle.
Some of Wools’ better performances came when she drove in a team-high four runs in a 12-2 win over Eureka and when she had a team-high two hits in a win at Neodesha.
Haviland served as first baseman and was a reliable threat to get on base. She hit for the cycle and drove in two runs in a 19-2 blowout victory of Caney Valley. Haviland also had two triples and drove in three runs against Neodesha.
