Softball Recap: Make It Four in a Row for Eastern

Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Eastern). They never let the Whiteoak Wildcats get on the board and left with a 15-0 victory on Thursday. The Warriors might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won four matchups by six runs or more this season.

The team relied heavily on Chloe Hauck, who got on base in all four of her plate appearances with three stolen bases, three runs, and two RBI. That's the most RBI she has posted since back in April of 2025. Emmery Simpson also deserves some recognition as she hit her first double of the season.

Eastern was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .476. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Whiteoak only posted a batting average of .167.
