BUTTE — Haden Peters hit a home run in two games, Sydney Mann hit two homers in one game and Columbia Falls slugged its way to two more wins at the Laverne Combo softball tournament Saturday.

Peters hit a grand slam in the third inning of a 10-6 win over the Butte JV; Aspen Dawson added a 3-run triple in the fourth as the Wildkats built a 9-0 lead.

Then Mann hit a pair of 3-run homers as the Wildkats (16-3) won a 20-11 slugfest with Lockwood. Maddie Moultray added a 3-run home run of her own in the game, which featured eight big flies — including two by Lockwood’s Emma Painter.

Peters hit a solo homer in what was a 14-run third inning for Columbia Falls; Kyrah Trenkle added a 3-run home run in the same frame as the Wildkats’ lead grew to 18-2. Dawson led off the fourth inning with a solo homer that made it 19-4.

The Wildkats’ next action is a Tuesday showdown at Northwest A leader Polson.
