You dare to run on Madeline Roberts, you pay the price, fool.

“We have liftoff!”

Don’t hurt ’em, Hammer!

Too late.

In a college softball game Sunday that featured a match-up between former Coupeville High School teammates, Hailey Hammer had the last laugh.

Now a freshman at Everett Community College, Hammer went yard in the top of the seventh, blasting a fences-clearing solo shot to lift her squad to a 1-0 win against host Shoreline CC.

On the other side of the field, her former Wolf running mate, Madeline Roberts, now a sophomore for the Dolphins.

Both teams are now 4-2 in Northwest Athletic Conference play, putting them in a second-place tie behind Bellevue (5-1).

Everett is 9-9 overall, while Shoreline is 8-6.

Hammer’s long ball, her first as a college player, caught her a bit by surprise.

“Right over center field, it barely felt like I hit it far!,” she said with a laugh.
