That's the most runs she has posted since back in September.

In other batting news, Lilly Roe was excellent, going 4-for-5 with four stolen bases, four runs, and one triple. That's the most stolen bases she has posted since back in September. Bailey Noble also deserves some recognition as she got her first hit of the season.

Meanwhile, Bennett lost 26-10 to Fort Lupton on Thursday. The Tigers have now taken an 'L' in back-to-back games.

One of them was Colby Robichaud, who got on base in all three of her plate appearances with two stolen bases, three runs, and one triple. Another was Grace Mathis, who got on base in all three of her plate appearances with one stolen base, one run, and one RBI.

Florence now has a winning record of 9-8. As for Bennett, their defeat dropped their record down to 11-11.

Wednesday's game might come down to which pitcher can control the ball better. Florence has hit smart this season, having averaged an OBP of .475. However, it's not like Bennett struggles in that department as they've averaged .591. With both teams so capable at the plate, fans should be ready for an impressive hitting performance.
