Frosh Pitchers lead Eagle Point past IV CAVE JUNCTION � With Eagle Point starting pitcher Jamie Williams sidelined with a thumb injury, freshmen Randy Mapes and Darci Brown got their chance to step on the mound Wednesday. Both came through in flying colors. Mapes allowed two hits and no runs through four innings and Brown fired three innings of scoreless relief as the Eagles breezed to a 4-0 victory over Illinois Valley in the season-opener for both teams. "They did a great job in their varsity debuts," Eagle Point coach Don Boucher said of the young pitching twosome. "They showed a lot of poise for their first times out." Junior third baseman Steffani Presley drilled an RBI double to left-center that gave Eagle Point the only run it would need in the top of the first inning. Presley finished the game 3-for-4 at the plate and scored twice. Christina Bateman and Cassie Dodenhoff added two hits each for the Eagles. "It feels good to start the season off with a win," Boucher said. "We�d got some young kids in our lineup and hopefully this will held build up our confidence." Williams, who tore a ligament in her pitching thumb during basketball, will be sidelined until April 2.
