At the plate, Madi Brigowatz was incredible, going 3-for-5 with two stolen bases, two runs, and one triple. That's the most stolen bases she has posted since back in April. The team also got some help courtesy of Hailey Fincutter, who went 2-for-4 with three stolen bases, one run, and one RBI.

Johnson Creek hit smart and finished the game with only one strikeout. The team has now struck out at least five batters in four consecutive contests.
