They narrowly escaped with a victory as the team sidled past the Quincy Blue Devils 3-2. The Maroons have seen this before: they got the W the last time they saw the Blue Devils, too.

She has been consistent recently: she hasn't tossed less than seven strikeouts in three consecutive appearances. She was also solid in the batter's box, going a perfect 2-for-2 with one RBI.
