HUDSON — The South Hamilton softball team extended its winning streak to six and claimed the title at the Hudson tournament on Saturday.

The Hawks (6-1) were dominant in both wins, as they took out Grundy Center, 6-1, and Hudson, 4-0.

South Hamilton was scheduled to open the day against Janesville, but the Wildcats pulled out of the tournament following the death of student Gilmore Taiber in a single-vehicle crash on Thursday.

Taylor Volkmann, the Hawks’ senior right-handed pitcher, was in the circle for the first time in more than a week and tossed a no-hitter in the title-game shutout of Hudson. Volkmann struck out 11 batters. Her bid for a perfect game was thwarted in the fourth inning when she plunked Ella Engel with a pitch.

Kenzy Grady laced two hits and drove in one run against the Pirates. Breanne Diersen and Lily Skartvedt had one RBI each.

Diersen went 4 for 4 with two doubles and two RBIs in the Hawks’ semifinal romp over Grundy Center. Skartvedt added two hits, one of which was a triple, and two RBIs. Jessi Harms roped a double and earned the pitching win after she struck out 12 against just four hits allowed.
