The Pulaski High School softball had just about everything go right in its 16-0 win in four innings over Fox River Classic Conference opponent Green Bay Southwest on April 14 in Pulaski.

Pulaski scored multiple runs in every inning, clubbed three home runs, saw pitcher Morgan Vertz throw a no-hitter and got strong defensive play behind her. It was about as perfect a home opener as the Red Raiders could dream up.

The only inning Vertz didn’t completely dominate was the first, when she walked three batters. She got out of the inning by striking out three batters.
