Prospect Mountain waltzed into their match on Monday with 11 straight wins... but they left with 12. They put the hurt on the Somersworth Toppers with a sharp 18-3 victory. The Timberwolves might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won nine games by ten runs or more this season.

Alexis Wilson made a big impact no matter where she played. She looked comfortable on the mound, striking out 12 batters over five innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off three hits. She has been consistent: she hasn't tossed less than six strikeouts in eight consecutive appearances. She was also stellar in the batter's box, going 2-for-4 with three runs, one triple, and one RBI. That triple was her first of the season.

In other batting news, Prospect Mountain got a massive performance out of Tori Christie, who got on base in all five of her plate appearances with five runs, one double, and one RBI. Those five runs gave Christie a new career-high. The team also got some help courtesy of Paityn Glidden, who got on base in four of her five plate appearances with three RBI, two runs, and one triple.

Prospect Mountain always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .650. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.

Prospect Mountain pushed their record up to 12-1 with the win, which was their 12th straight at home dating back to last season. Those home victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.0 run on average over those games. As for Somersworth, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 3-4.

Both teams will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. Prospect Mountain will head out to face off against Newfound Regional at 4:00 p.m. on Thursday. As for Somersworth, they will venture away from home to challenge Kearsarge at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday. The Cougars have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 15.17 runs per game on average), something the Toppers will no doubt try to take advantage of.
