The East Mills softball committed five errors leading to 11 unearned runs in a 16-5 loss to Sidney on Thursday.

The Wolverines (1-8) had 10 hits on offense but couldn't overcome their defensive miscues or the loss of their top hurler, Shelby Goodman, who was forced to leave the game heading into the top of the seventh with an undisclosed medical condition.

"We didn't play too bad. We actually played really well until we had to pull Shelby (Goodman) in the last inning," said East Mills coach Chuck Goodman. "After that we sort of went downhill."
