three for four in the win at Spencer

three for four in the win at Spencer, two for three with a double, a sacrifice fly and three RBIs in the May 1 win over Colby-Abbotsford and two for four with an RBI in a 14-7 loss at Loyal-Greenwood on May 5. She also was two for three with a double in Gilman’s 6-5 loss to Prairie Farm in a May 27 WIAA Division 5 regional semifinal.

Olynick, who was the Pirates’ shortstop and settled into the fifth spot in Gilman’s batting order, was another power threat for the Pirates. She hit .481 in conference play and added a .650 on-base percentage and .741 slugging percentage. Overall she finished at .426 with her batting average, a .563 on-base percentage and a .704 slugging percentage boosted by three home runs and six doubles.

Olynick put up big numbers in the May 1 rout of Colby-Abbotsford, going four for five with five runs batted in and a home run. She was three for three with a double and three RBIs in the home win over Loyal-Greenwood. She was two for three in game two with Columbus Catholic, hit an RBI triple in the 3-2 loss at Neillsville-Granton and had two hits in the regional semifinal loss.

Also in non-conference play, she homered in a home loss to Rib Lake, hit a two-run inside-the-park home run in an 11-2 win over Drummond on May 10 and hit a go-ahead two-run triple in a 5-4 win over Augusta at Poynette on April 5.

Stuner got some quality innings a year ago for Gilman behind then All-ECC senior Danielle Mann and used that experience to step into the full-time role as the Pirates’ ace this spring. She went 7-3 in conference games with a 4.97 earned run average in 50 innings pitched. She only walked 25 in those innings and struck out 37. She also hit .287 and had a .500 onbase percentage.

Stuner had seven strikeouts and gave up two hits in an 11-0 shutout win over Colby-Abbotsford in the conference opener April 15. She struck out four, walked two in a seven-inning effort in the win at Spencer April 22. She pitched both games of the Neillsville-Granton doubleheader, which might have been her best day of the spring. In game one, despite the 3-2 loss, she allowed just four hits in six innings. She struck out two and worked around nine hits in six innings in the 14-4 game-two win. She walked one batter in those 12 innings.

This year’s All-ECC first team is dominated by the champions from Columbus Catholic, who put four players on the squad, Yeboah, senior Ashley Weiler, junior Shelby Spata and sophomore Abby Wojcik. Spata, the Dons’ power-hitting and athletic centerfielder was named the conference’s Player of the Year and eventually earned first-team Division 4/5 All-State honors. Spencer’s Hannah Schreiner, Loyal-Greenwood’s Liv Lucas and Addison Davidson and Neillsville-Granton’s Klarissa Canfield and Keltie Schoen fill out 2025 first team.
