Barone’s perfect game fulfills her season goal

By Ginna Young

In what could be the first no-hitter in Cadott Hornets Softball history, junior Makenna Barone got her name in the record books June 3, against Osseo-Fairchild on the road.

“I didn’t even know until the end of the game,” said Barone of her feat, as she was focused on the game until she went to give the game ball to her coach. “She said, ‘No, you can keep that, because that was just a no-hitter.’”

In front of the Hornets fans who were in attendance, Barone’s no-hitter made the team’s win all the sweeter over their conference opponent. Barone says it was nice to have the support from fans, and credits her coaches and parents for helping her achieve her goal.
