Kaukauna junior ace Karly Meredith struck out eight over five innings and gave up two hits. One was a solo home run to Kimberly freshman third baseman Chloe Biese in the third inning.

“It’s definitely crazy to think about,” Meredith said of reaching the 100-win mark. “But I just gotta keep composed and keep trusting in what we do.”

The Ghosts’ offense scored in four of the five innings with junior infielder Chloe Herzfeldt finishing 2-for-3 with a two-run double in the third inning and four RBI total.

Paige Bodenheimer also had three RBI with Meredith and Jozy Ebben also finishing with two hits and an RBI each. Cassidy VandenHeuvel also scored three runs.
