McMichael extended their winning streak to four on Tuesday, bumping them up to 19-3. Everything went their way against the Morehead Panthers as they made off with a 7-1 victory. The result was nothing new for the Phoenix, who have now won 16 games by six runs or more so far this season.

Lindsay Redmon spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered a run (which was unearned) on five hits and racked up 11 Ks. She has been consistent for a while: she hasn't tossed less than six strikeouts in 11 consecutive appearances.

At the plate, McMichael got a massive performance out of Ava Harris, who went 3-for-4 with three doubles, two RBI, and one run. Those three doubles gave Harris a new career-high. Olivia Wilson was another key player, going 2-for-4 with two runs, two RBI, and one double.

McMichael hit smart and finished the game with only two strikeouts. The team has now struck out at least four batters in three consecutive contests.

As for Morehead, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost six of their last eight matchups. That's put a noticeable dent in their 6-10 record this season. Having soared to a lofty 15 runs in the game before, they couldn't push the score so high this time.

On Morehead's side, they saw seven different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Taylor Hopper, who went 2-for-3 with one run and one double.

Coming up, McMichael will challenge Rockingham County at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday. The Phoenix's pitchers better be ready for this one: the Cougars have averaged an impressive 8.2 runs per game this season. Morehead does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
