Sequim junior Taylee Rome’s bat has been heating up for the Wolves softball team that has won four of its last six games after starting the season 0-3.
Rome had a huge game on April 11 in a 15-5 win over Kingston, going 4-for-5 at the plate with three doubles, three RBIs and two runs scored. She also added a walk.
On April 13 against Olympic, she continued with her hot bat, going 2-for-3 with a double. Over the past two games, she is batting .750 with four doubles.
Rome and her Wolves teammates have a huge test at home this afternoon, taking on their undefeated and No. 5-ranked rivals from Port Angeles as the two teams battle to remain near the top of the Olympic League standings.
