Grossmont proved they can win big last Wednesday (they won by 14) and on Tuesday they proved they can win the close ones too. They skirted past the Helix Scotties 5-4. This was a revenge game for the Foothillers: when they faced off against the Scotties back in April, they had to take a 3-0 loss.

Sahara Roope made a splash while hitting and pitching. On the mound, she tossed two innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit. Roope was also stellar in the batter's box, going 2-for-4 with three RBI, two doubles, and one run. That's the most doubles she has posted since back in February.
