Game 1: Riverton walks off with Game 1 win over Herriman
Kenzie Anderson broke an 8-all tie with an RBI single in the bottom of the seventh inning to lift Riverton to a 9-8 win and a 1-0 lead in the best-of-three 6A softball championship series Thursday night at BYU’s Gail Miller Field.
It’s the second win of the year for Riverton (27-4) against Herriman, which won the first meeting between the two rivals in 2026 5-1 back on March 26 before the Silverwolves responded with a 15-2 victory May 5.
The Silverwolves will try to win a third straight title and fifth in six years beginning Friday at 1:30 p.m. MT at Gail Miller Field.
If Herriman wins Game 2, a winner-take-all third game will decide the series beginning at approximately 7 p.m. MT.
All games will be streamed live here.
The Riverton Silverwolves go down to the wire and take a 1-0 series lead in the 6A Girls Softball Championship with a 9-8 win over Herriman.
