It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but Legend had no problem doing just that on Friday. They put the hurt on the Pueblo West Cyclones with a sharp 10-0 win. Considering the Titans have won 14 contests by more than seven runs this season, Friday's blowout was nothing new.

Not much got past Maddie Kessel, who gave up just three hits and racked up nine Ks to keep Pueblo West off the board.

On the hitting side, Ella Athey and Lucy Thompson did most of the damage at the plate: Athey went 2-for-3 with four RBI and one run, while Thompson went 2-for-4 with four RBI and one stolen base. That's the most RBI Thompson has posted since back in October of 2024. The team also got some help courtesy of Reese Bryant, who went 2-for-4 with two runs, two RBI, and one double.

They weren't the only ones making solid contact: Legend kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 11 hits. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now got at least ten hits in three consecutive games.

Legend has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won 17 of their last 18 matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 21-5 record this season. The victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 12.6 runs over those games. As for Pueblo West, their loss ended a five-game streak of away wins and brought them to 19-8.

Looking ahead, Legend will take on Columbine at 2:30 p.m. on Friday. The Titans will need to watch out since the Rebels have now posted at least ten runs in their last seven contests. Pueblo West does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
