Serena Goodwill came of age in the biggest game of her short high school softball career Wednesday.
And because she did, No. 9 sectional tournament seed Evanston spilled No. 8 Lincoln Park 7-2 in the Class 4A regional opener at Oz Park in Chicago and advanced to the regional championship game on Thursday. The Wildkits will face top-seeded Whitney Young in that matchup.
Goodwill struck out 15, just 2 shy of the ETHS single game record and a likely record for a postseason game, considering the program s lack of success in the Illinois High School Association state tournament series until recently. She fanned every Lion in the starting lineup at least once and scattered 6 hits. Goodwill walked 3 and both runs scored by the hosts were unearned.

Now that the New Trier-Evanston softball rivalry has turned lopsided in another direction, Madison McGuire still believes it s special.
That s why the Wildkits senior captain thought it was a good idea to bring back some throwback jerseys from the early days (circa 1970s-80s) for the first matchup of the 2021 season.
McGuire did her best to make sure that the outcome didn t revert back to the days when the Trevians dominated the head-to-head rivalry - usually by the 10-run slaughter rule. But Tuesday, McGuire went 2-for-4 with a double and triple and 2 runs-batted-in as the Wildkits defeated the Trevians for the fifth time in a row, this time by a 9-3 margin.
