Mustangs walk past Lake Central

April 18, 2007
BY STEVE T. GORCHES Post-Tribune staff writer

ST. JOHN -- The actual numbers at the end of day for Hallie Gibbs were very unimpressive -- 0-for-1 with a groundout to third base.
But her imposing hitting ability made the ultimate impact on Tuesday with Lake Central intentionally walking the Munster senior twice.

Both times the added base-runner resulted in a run scoring, and that was enough to give the Mustangs a 2-1 victory in one of the biggest non-conference softball rivalries in Northwest Indiana.

Despite the results, Lake Central (8-2) coach Keith Hauber had no regrets in issuing the walks.

"I'd do it again. I'd do it a thousand times," he said. "She's the best hitter they've ever had. I'd be a fool to let her beat us."

Hauber compared the situation to his former All-State third-baseman Katie Mitchell, who is now at Purdue.

"If I was facing Katie Mitchell, I wouldn't have let her beat me either," he said.

The next hitter after Gibbs was junior outfielder Kelly Mashura. She had a single the first time, setting up Phoebe Conner for her RBI single. The second time, "K-Mash", as her coach and teammates call her, fouled off pitch after pitch before drawing a bases-loaded walk for the game-winning tally.

"It makes me want to go up there and hit it harder," Mashura said about following an intentional walk to Gibbs. "Hallie's a really good player. I just went up there (in the second at-bat) with an open mind, not thinking about my other at-bats."

If Gibbs were anyone else with a less-impressive resume -- she will be playing at Syracuse University next year and is a perennial All-Area player at third base -- the Indians would have probably won.

Or the teams could have played up until darkness like last year's 19-inning sectional classic that needed two days to complete before LC defeated Munster (8-1).

"When they tied it up, I thought it had the potential to be like that sectional game," Mashura said.

The Indians had a chance to take the lead in the fifth inning when they scored their lone run.

Sarah Shields had an RBI single, the third hit of the frame and fourth straight hard hit ball with a sharp liner to Munster shortstop Lauren Parker in between. LC had the bases loaded with one out after Shields' hit, but freshman pitcher Grace Ispas came into the game in relief and got out of the jam.

"I was nervous, but I just tried to keep my cool and play smart," Ispas said. "All my pitches were working pretty good, which I was very thankful for."
