Raiders Stay Perfect in Panama City with Pair of Wins
Got it — cleaner, tighter, no play-by-play clutter, and reads like a true recap. Here's a revised version that keeps your facts but flows better:
PANAMA CITY, Fla. — Northwest Florida State softball kept its unbeaten season rolling Saturday, sweeping a doubleheader at Publix Sports Park to move to 12–0 on the year. Raider pitching continued to dominate, as the staff allowed just one run all week while powering another strong day in the circle.
Game One: Northwest Florida 3, John A. Logan 0
Northwest Florida opened the day with a 3–0 shutout of John A. Logan behind a combined effort from Marlee Parsons and Savannah Carter. Carter induced a flyout to record the final out and seal the shutout.
The Raiders broke through in the bottom of the fourth inning when Karson McGowan launched a two-run home run to right field. An error later in the frame accounted for the final run.
Parsons earned the win, allowing just two hits over four scoreless innings while striking out five without issuing a walk. Pasquino took the loss for John A. Logan after surrendering three runs (two earned) on six hits across six innings. Carter was sharp in relief, throwing three hitless innings with one strikeout.
McGowan drove in two runs to lead the Raiders, while Stevens paced the offense with a 2-for-3 performance. Northwest Florida showed patience at the plate with four walks and was flawless defensively, committing no errors. Tretau led the team with six chances in the field.
Game Two: Northwest Florida 7, Roane State 1
The Raiders carried their momentum into the nightcap, jumping out to a four-run first inning and cruising to a 7–1 victory over Roane State.
McGowan delivered again, driving in two runs with a double in the opening frame, while Julie Stevens and Jaci Gary also added runs in the ballgame, helping the Raiders build a commanding lead.
Issabell Warrick picked up the win in the circle, allowing one run on four hits over five innings while striking out four and walking one. Carter added two scoreless innings in relief, striking out four and allowing just one hit.
McGowan and Stevens each recorded two RBIs, while Anna Grace Griggs led the Raiders offensively with a 2-for-3 day at the plate. Stevens also drew two walks as Northwest Florida finished with four free passes. The Raiders turned a double play and continued their clean defensive play.
If you want this punched up slightly more aggressive, trimmed for web, or rewritten to mirror NJCAA recap tone exactly, I've got you.
