The Inglemoor softball team defeated Liberty in a slugfest 18-17 on Wednesday, as defense took a back seat to bashing the ball.

Inglemoor scored five more during the fifth to take a 13-11 lead before the Patriots jumped ahead 17-13.

The Vikings forced extra innings with four seventh-inning runs and won the game in the bottom of the eighth.

Both teams combined for seven errors during the game.

Shelby Johnston led Inglemoor, going 5-for-6 with five runs scored and two RBI. Viking Izzy Riddle was 3-for-6 with an RBI and a run scored, while teammate Lauren Brown was 2-for-5 with two RBI.
