Gold Beach Panthers Softball 1-3 Oregon City

A late rally wasn't enough for Gold Beach as the Panthers dropped a 3-1 softball decision to Oregon City on Monday afternoon. The Panthers managed just one run against the Pioneers' pitching staff in the league contest.

Oregon City built their advantage early, putting together solid at-bats to plate three runs while keeping Gold Beach's offense largely in check throughout the game. The Panthers showed fight with their lone tally but couldn't string together the timely hits needed to mount a comeback.

The loss moves Gold Beach to 5-14 overall and 2-13 in conference play as the spring season winds down. Despite the challenging record, the Panthers have continued to compete hard in league action, gaining valuable experience for younger players who will form the core of next year's squad.

Gold Beach will look to bounce back in their remaining games as they prepare for the final stretch of the season. The Panthers return home for their next contest, hoping to find offensive rhythm in familiar surroundings.
