WILDWOOD – A team in desperate need of a victory got one Thursday afternoon.

Oakley went 3 for 4 with two runs scored and an RBI and Kilian scattered six hits while walking just one on the mound to lead the Lady Warriors (3-10).
With the score tied at 2-2 in the bottom of the fourth, Wildwood took the lead for good with a three-run inning. Five walks and an RBI hit by Oakley led to the three runs.
Imene Fathi drove home Wildwood’s first two runs, the first on a ground out in the opening inning and the second on an RBI single in the third.
Kilian set the side down in order in the seventh to end the game.
Wildwood played a crisp game in the field, committing just one error.
