Bellevue received a pair of lights-out performances in the circle from Emily Fleischman (13 innings, 2 runs, 0 earned runs) to beat West Seattle 6-0 and then Bishop Blanchet 12-2 in six innings.

Senior shortstop Lisa Bennett hit a two-run home run to right centerfield in the second game to spark the Wolverines in the bottom of the first inning of the second game, giving Bellevue a 3-2 lead it would not give back.
