TALLMADGE, Ohio — The Tallmadge Blue Devils softball team has been growing all season long. They rave about their chemistry, on and off the field. Now with the postseason in front of them, the team is looking to rally around each other—especially after their pitcher Riley Jackson's recent outing.
"She asked, 'Hey, am I throwing,'" said head coach Brittany Lightel."I said 'Of course you're throwing.' And then from that point forward, she was ready to rock." "It felt good to pitch a perfect game," Jackson said."And that was my 115th strikeout of the season." The perfect game was a remarkable feat for Jackson, but the takedown of Fairview Park was a true team effort.Lightel believes that her girls feed off each other. So when Jackson threw a perfect game, there was little question the bats would step up to support their pitcher's efforts.
