By RICHIE HALLReporter Sports EditorHaving taken care of one Knights team

in the regional, the Hamilton Heights soft-ball team now has its sights on anothergroup of Knights.

The Huskies will play Mishawaka Mar-ian at 1 p.m. Saturday in the second semi-final of the Twin Lakes semi-state. Thiswill be the second year in a row thatHeights will play in the semi-state; it madeits first-ever appearance at that level lastyear.

In the other semi-final, No. 3-rankedKankakee Valley will play No. 10 Fairfieldat 11 a.m. The championship is set for 7p.m., with the winner going to state.

The Huskies qualified for semi-statewith a big regional victory at Norwell, bythe score of 9-2. What looked to be a closegame early turned into a rout after Heightsscored seven runs in the third inning. Now,the focus in on Mishawka Marian, which isranked No. 9 in Class 3A and comes intothe semi-state with a 22-7 record.

The Knights won their first six games ofthe season before being stopped by Penn,which finished the regular season as the No.2-ranked team in 4A. Marian squeezed pastsectional host South Bend Saint Joseph 4-3in the first round of sectionals, then won itsnext two games by reasonable margins, 4-1over Jimtown in the semi-finals and 3-1over New Prairie in the championship. TheKnights won the regional by getting pastWestern 2-0.

Marian's leading hitter is junior LizzieBollinger, who is batting at an astounding.609 clip. Bollinger has 51 hits and 46RBIs, and has smacked seven home runsthis season.

A pair of sophomores are next in line inhitting percentage. Megan Urbanski is aver-aging .449 at the plate with 20 RBIs, while

Jessica Nowicki is hitting .447, and leadsthe team in runs scored with 35. Junior Brooke Stoltz is the main pitch-er for Marian. Stoltz has compiled a 12-3

record with an ERA of 1.80. With 104strikeouts over 97 innings, that gives heran average of 1.07 strikeouts per inning.

The Huskies have three batters aheadof the .400 mark. Junior Ashton Runnerholds the lead with a .427 average; she isfirst for Heights in runs scored (22) andhas the most triples with five. SophomoreJessica Kaurich, who seems to do some-thing heroic in every Huskies post-seasongame, is next with a .425 mark. Kaurich

leads Heights in RBIs (27), doubles(eight) and home runs (four).

Then there's Ashley Roberts, the do-everything senior. Roberts is a good hitterwith a .418 average; she leads the Huskiesin total hits (33) and has batted in 15 runs.

Roberts is also stellar in the pitchingcircle with a 7-4 record this season. Shepitched a shutout for Heights in the sec-tional championship game in Yorktown,the second year in a row she allowed noruns in a sectional title match-up.

As a preventative measure for thesummer season, Grand Park recentlystocked its lakes with Gambusia affinisfish (also known as mosquito fish).

“Grand Park is focused on preven-tative measures to ensure the safety ofour visitors,” says Ken Alexander, Di-rector of Grand Park. “These fish willhelp control our mosquito populationin a natural way.”

The Gambusia affinis fish feast onmosquitos and eat up to 500 larvae perday (3x their body weight). Due to theamount of ponds at Grand Park, 6,600fish were stocked for the 22 acres ofwater. They also spawn regularlythroughout the summer with broods ofup to 100 at about six week intervals.

While these fish should be helpfulin controlling the mosquito population,visitors are still encouraged to applyinsect repellent containing DEET.
