Results: Chester 26, Liberty 5
The Varsity Softball team faced a dual challenge this week, squaring off against a powerhouse Chester lineup and a grueling 30-minute torrential downpour. While Chester secured the victory, the game served as a vital learning ground for an inexperienced Redhawks roster that continues to show growth through every bump in the road.
Chester’s high-powered offense pounded out 11 hits, taking advantage of defensive miscues and walks.. The Hambletonians were led by Brooke Diaz, who finished 3-for-4 with a double, 4 runs scored, and 3 RBI. Diaz was one of three Chester batters to record multiple hits and score at least four times, keeping the pressure on the Redhawks throughout the afternoon.
Despite the final score and the difficult playing conditions, the Varsity had some bright spots on the day that highlights their potential. In the 3rd inning, Amy Szuba stepped up with the bases loaded and delivered a line-drive 2-run single, sparking the dugout. Maddy Stewart extended her hitting streak to three games, finishing 1-for-3 with a run scored and also continued her dominance in center field, tracking down a difficult sinking line drive for another spectacular catch. Angie Wheeler provided a bright spot in the circle, racking up 8 strikeouts in just 3.1 innings of work in relief.
With an inexperienced roster, the Redhawks understand that this season is a journey of learning and perseverance. While the elements and the opponent were formidable, the team’s work ethic remains high. The heartbeat of the game was once again the Redhawk bench. Despite the rain and the scoreboard, the dugout remained enthusiastic, loud, and relentlessly positive, spurring their teammates on until the final out. This unwavering team spirit remains the foundation as Liberty continues to grow and improve with every inning played.

The Liberty Redhawks Varsity Softball team reached a major milestone this week, securing their first-ever Class A Division III League win since the state’s reclassification. In a gritty, come-from-behind performance, the Redhawks defeated their division rival, marking their second win in their last three outings and proving that this team is working hard to grow and doing what they need to do to win.
The game didn’t start in Liberty’s favor, as the Redhawks found themselves trailing 4-1 after the first inning. They continued to battle through the middle frames, chipping away at the lead but still trailing 6-4 heading into the later stages of the contest.
The true turning point arrived in the top of the 6th inning when the Redhawks exploded for an 11-run rally. The marathon inning included 4 timely hits that drove in runs , 3 batters reaching on errors as the Redhawks forced the defense into mistakes, and 6 disciplined walks, showing the hitters ability to have good at bats.
The Liberty’s offense was led by a mix of veteran consistency and included a career-first. Maddy Stewart continued her torrid pace at the plate, turning in a massive 4-for-5 performance with a walk, 3 runs scored, and 4 RBI. Giuliana Wagner remained a force in the lineup, finishing 3-for-6 with 2 runs scored and 2 RBI. Lilli Black achieved a personal milestone by hitting her first-ever Varsity double, finishing the day with 2 runs scored and 2 RBI. Arianna Wilson proved to be a force on the bases, reaching safely three times and scoring twice.
While the offense provided the fireworks, Angie Wheeler delivered a strong complete-game performance, silencing the opposition’s bats when it mattered most. Angie’s finished with 7.0 innings pitched allowing just 2 Earned Runs while scattering 6 hits and striking out 13.
With this victory, the Redhawks improve to 1-1 in the division and 2-3 overall. This win is definitive proof that the team’s hard work is paying off, and that their ability to overcome early deficits with a relentless, positive attitude is becoming a hallmark of their season.

Result: Liberty 17, Eldred 0
The JV Softball team is officially hitting their stride. In a commanding performance on Friday night, the Redhawks dominated Eldred with a 17-0 victory, securing their second consecutive win and moving their season record to 2-1. The story of the night was starting pitcher Harper Matuszak, who delivered a spectacular performance from the rubber. Matuszak tossed a 5-inning complete-game shutout, stifling the Eldred bats by allowing just two hits all afternoon. Her dominance was on full display as she racked up an incredible 12 strikeouts, keeping the opposition off-balance from the first pitch to the last.
The game was never in doubt as the Redhawks’ offense exploded early, jumping out to a 5-0 lead in the first inning and never looking back. The team displayed remarkable discipline and depth at the plate, drawing 10 walks as a unit—a clear sign of their growing skill and patience. The box score was a total team effort, with every single starter in the lineup scoring at least one run, and seven different Liberty batters crossing the plate at least twice. Individual standouts included Montgomery Allen who was a constant threat on the basepaths as she reached base four times (2 hits, 2 walks), tallying 3 runs and 1 RBI, Corinne Lake who stayed aggressive at the plate, finishing 2-for-4 with 2 runs scored and an RBI, and Harper, who helped her own cause offensively, finishing 2-for-3 and scoring twice.
This 17-run outburst combined with lockdown pitching performance proves that the JV squad is finding its rhythm. With their second straight win under their belts, the Redhawks are proving to be a formidable force as they move through their spring schedule.
The energy in the dugout remains positive and loud as this young team continues to work hard, support one another, and—most importantly—put marks in the win column.

Result: Liberty 3, Monticello 12
The Liberty Redhawks Varsity Softball team traveled to the Rockland Softball Tournament today, facing strong pitching and a demanding doubleheader. While the day proved to be a tough test for the squad, it featured one of the most remarkable pitching performances in recent memory.
The opening game of the tournament was defined by an elite pitching showdown between Liberty’s ace, Angie Wheeler, and Monticello’s Madison Taggart. The two hurlers put on a pitching masterclass, combining for a staggering 32 strikeouts in a game that remained a tight contest until the 2 1/2 final frames.
Angie Wheeler was the undisputed highlight of the day for the Redhawks. Delivering a performance built on precision and power, she finished with a 6-inning complete game, striking out 16 batters while yielding only a single walk. Most impressively, Wheeler maintained a dominant 75% strike percentage, consistently challenging the Panthers’ hitters.
Despite the brilliance in the circle, the Monticello offense found its spark in the closing stages. The Panthers broke the game open in the final two innings, capitalizing on five hits and a few defensive miscues by the Redhawks to plate eight runs. Monticello’s 12-3 victory was led by a trio of multi-hit performers: Taggart, Ryleigh Schoomaker, and Jeannah Mckinney.
While the Redhawks struggled to string together a sustained rally against Taggart’s 16-strikeout performance, a few players had good days at the plate. Maddy Stewart continued her breakout season, leading the Liberty offense with a sharp 2-for-3 performance and scoring a run. Giuliana Wagner provided a massive spark with a clutch triple that drove in an RBI while Angie Wheeler contributed on both sides of the ball, utilizing her speed to cross the plate for two runs scored.
1 p.m.: Consolation games at Rockland Middle/High School
Results: Softball: Liberty3, South Kortright 12
In the consolation game against South Kortright, Liberty started quickly as they jumped out to a quick lead in the second inning when Maddy Stewart singled to drive in Brooke Porter. After Lilli Black crossed the plate on a wild pitch, Angie Wheeler laced an RBI single to center field, giving the Redhawks a 3-0 cushion.
The Redhawks held a 3-2 lead through five innings behind the impressive Varsity debut of Harper Matuszak, who was called up from the JV squad to assist for the day. Harper’s performance was so stellar it earned accolades from the opposing coach, as she finished with 7 strikeouts and allowed only six hits.
However, the game turned in the 6th inning as the Rams’ offense, led by Madysen Reeves’ 2-run HR, exploded for 10 runs over the final two frames to secure a 12-3 victory. Reeves finished the day with 3 hits, 2 runs scored and 3 RBI.
For Liberty, Harper recorded her first-ever Varsity hit, another milestone on the day to go with her first Varsity start. Maddy Stewart and Angie Wheeler both continued their productive day with a hit and an RBI each while Arianna Wilson contributed to the offensive effort with a base hit of her own.
While dropping two games at a tournament is a difficult “bump in the road,” the Redhawks continue to use these high-pressure moments as learning opportunities. Facing the area’s various talent and elite pitching allows this inexperienced roster to gain valuable learning experience.
Angie Wheeler was named to the All-Tournament Team for her outstanding performance in both games.
The Varsity remains focused on the long game—honing their skills, tightening their defense, and maintaining the positive dugout energy that has become their trademark. With the squad showing steady growth after every inning, the Redhawks are ready to bring these lessons home as they prepare to host Burke Catholic on Monday.
