Call it a combined shutout. 

Olivia Warriner threw 7 2-3 scoreless innings Tuesday, broke a 4-4 tie with a two-run single in the first game and helped Glacier sweep a home softball doubleheader from Butte, 6-4 and 5-0.

Warriner relieved Olivia Gibbons in the opener with one out and two on in the fourth inning, and Butte leading 4-1 on Reese Johnson’s two-run double. She got the next two Bulldogs to strike out and line out to end that threat. 

The Wolfpack (10-2 overall, 6-2 in the Western AA) tied the game in the fifth inning thanks to an RBI single by Cazz Rankosky and Gibbons’ fly to center that was misplayed, letting in two runs. 

Glacier loaded the bases with nobody out up in the sixth inning. After Butte pitcher Ashlinn Mullaney retired Nakiah Persinger and Rankosky on infield flies, Warriner hit a two-run single to center. 

Then she worked a 1-2-3 ninth. Warriner allowed just two hits and struck out six in the opener. Gibbons, who hit a double, allowed seven hits in 3.1 innings in the circle, with four strikeouts. 

Kaydee Walcheck scored twice for Glacier. 

In the second game Warriner scattered six hits in four innings, with two strikeouts; Ava Grady threw the final three innings, fanning three. 

Rankosky’s RBI grounder broke a 0-0 tie in the third inning, sparking a four-run outburst: Warriner’s RBI single made it 2-0, Glacier; Rankosky scored as part of a double-steal; and Karley Allen’s two-out single brought in Warriner to make it 4-0. 

The Pack, playing as the visitor in the second game, added a run in the top of the sixth when Walcheck doubled and came in on Aubree Gerber’s single. 

Butte fell to 3-10, 3-4 in the Western AA.
