Erin Macedo has been on a tear lately for the Quilcene Rangers softball squad.
Macedo’s bat and glove behind the plate have been a big part of the Rangers’ success this year. Quilcene is undefeated in the Sea-Tac 1B League so far (11-1 overall, the Rangers’ only loss was to the Port Angeles JV squad) and if they can beat Rainier Christian in a big game today, they are likely well on their way to a league championship.
Macedo is a slugging machine for the Rangers who not only hits for average, she hits for extra bases. In just one week last week, Macedo hit a three-run home run against Klahowya, a two-run home run against Muckleshoot and a triple against Kingston.
