Natalie Sherman was another key player, going 2-for-3 with two doubles, one stolen base, and one run.

Bishop Brady kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 12 hits. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now got at least eight hits in three consecutive matches.
