Not long after the newest addition to the Brenham Cubette Softball family, Landry Lynn Roberts, was born, her mama's team welcomed her with a 15-2 run-rule victory over the Montgomery Lady Bears.

The Cubettes got on the board early and often. In the first inning, Sarah Mabie singled to center, and came home to score on an RBI double by Annie Beckendorf. Avery Maurer followed with an RBI triple to score Beckendorf which gave Brenham a 2-0 after just half an inning.

Stella Landry led off the top of the second inning with a single. Nevaeh Holmes was brought in as a courtesy runner. McKenzie Tiemann singled to put two runners on base. Halle Scheel, then slugged a two run triple to score Holmes and Tiemann. Scheel also scored on an error by the Montgomery shortstop on the play. Two batters later, Annie Beckendorf smashed a home run over the left field wall, and the Cubettes extended their lead to 6-0.

Brenham struck again with three more runs in the third inning. Landry walked, and Holmes came on to run for her. Tiemann also reach on a walk. Scheel loaded the bases by reaching on a fielder's choice. Kaylyn Rodriguez followed with a three-run triple to give the Cubettes a 9-0 lead.

Montgomery came back with a pair of runs in the bottom of the third to cut the Brenham advantage down to 9-2.

The Cubettes put the game away in the top of the fifth inning. Stella Landry reached on an error, and Holmes was brought in to run a third time. Tiemann reached on a bunt single. For the second time in the game, Scheel brought Holmes and Tiemann home with a two-run triple. Rodriguez walked. Mabie singled home Scheel to put Brenham up 12-2.

Beckendorf kept her perfect day going with a two-run single that scored Rodriguez and Mabie. Kaylie Rodriguez capped off the scoring with an RBI single to score Beckendorf, and make it 15-2 Brenham.

Heidi Busker got the start and went the distance to get the win.
