It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but Monroe had no problem doing just that on Friday. They put the hurt on the Ballard Beavers with a sharp 8-1 win. Considering the Bearcats have won seven contests by more than five runs this season, Friday's blowout was nothing new.

Holly Pettitt spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered a run (which was unearned) on five hits. She has been consistent: she hasn't given up more than two walks in eight consecutive appearances.

At the plate, Scarlett Nagy was incredible, firing off two home runs and five RBI while going 3-for-4. That's the most RBI she has posted since back in May of 2024. The team also got some help courtesy of Brooke Boswell, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with one home run and two RBI.

They weren't the only ones working in the home run department: Monroe lost a few balls and finished the game with three home runs. That's the most home runs they've managed all season.

Monroe has been performing well recently as they've won 11 of their last 14 matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 13-7 record this season. As for Ballard, their defeat ended a seven-game streak of wins at home and dropped them to 15-6.

As of now, neither Monroe nor the Beavers have any future games scheduled.
