JAMESTOWN – Jamestown Blue Jay Softball has had an up-&-down 2025 season.  On Monday, the home schedule ended on an uptick.

A five-run first inning propelled Jamestown to a 7-0 non-conference win over West Fargo at Trapper Lawrence Field.

Brooke Jackson started the big opening inning for the Blue Jays (15-11-1) with a triple, then scored on a Jaelyn Sloan single.  Avery Graves doubled in the inning’s second run.  A passed ball brought home the third.  Jordan Mikkelson singled in the fourth run and winning pitcher Maddie Hoff (8-6) drove in the fifth with another single.

Brynn Sorenson made the Blue Jay lead 6-0 with a fifth inning sacrifice fly.  A passed ball scored the final run in the seventh.

Hoff (four innings) and Sloan (three innings) combined on a three-hit shutout with seven strikeouts, with Sloan fanning six.

Jamestown will end the regular season with a WDA doubleheader against Legacy Tuesday in Bismarck.
