Everything went their way against the Mt. Blue Cougars as they made off with a 9-2 win. Considering the Windjammers have won four matches by more than six runs this season, Tuesday's blowout was nothing new.

Maya Stone made a big impact while hitting and pitching. She struck out nine batters over seven innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off one hit. She has been nothing but reliable on the mound: she hasn't given up more than one earned run in five consecutive appearances.

Laukka has been hot, having posted at least one stolen base the last seven times she's played.

Camden Hills pushed their record up to 8-3 with the victory, which was their fourth straight on the road. The road wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 9.0 runs over those games. As for Mt. Blue, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost four of their last five contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 4-4 record this season.
