Softball Recap: Thursday's Victory Is Mamou's Third in Last Four Outings

Mamou's game last Wednesday was a loss, but they didn't let that memory haunt them on Thursday. They never let the Delcambre Panthers get on the board and left with an 11-0 victory. The high-scoring effort was just what the Demons needed considering they were shut out in their previous contest.

Ashlyn Thibodeaux made a splash while hitting and pitching. She didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only two hits while striking out six over five innings pitched. The dominant performance also gave her a new career-low in walks (zero). She was also big at the plate, going 2-for-3 with two RBI. Those two RBI gave her a new career-high.

In other batting news, Kelci Fontenot and Jaidan Richard did most of the damage at the plate: Fontenot scored three runs while going 3-for-3, while Richard scored three runs and stole a base while going 2-for-3. The dominant performance also gave Fontenot a new career-high in RBI (two). Another player making a difference was Danilynn Landreneau, who went 1-for-4 with one triple, two RBI, and one run.

Mamou has been performing well recently as they've won three of their last four matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 8-12-1 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 8.8 runs over those games. Delcambre moved to 14-7 with that defeat, which also ended their four-game winning streak.

Both squads will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. Mamou will challenge Ville Platte at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday. As for Delcambre, they will face off against Centerville at 5:30 p.m. on Monday.
