Fairview extended their winning streak to three on Thursday, bumping them up to 8-5. They never let the Niwot Cougars get on the board and left with a 10-0 victory. The Knights might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won five matchups by seven runs or more this season.

Jackson Wier made a big impact while hitting and pitching. He looked comfortable on the mound, not allowing a single earned run over five innings pitched. He also tossed no earned runs, which is notable because Fairview is 5-1 when he allows at most two earned runs, but 3-4 otherwise. Wier was also stellar in the batter's box, getting on base in all three of his plate appearances with one home run and two RBI. That home run was his first of the season.

In other batting news, Isaac Waymire and Tanner Craytor did most of the damage at the plate: Waymire fired off two home runs and three RBI while going 2-for-4, while Craytor went 2-for-3 with one home run, two stolen bases, and three runs. Craytor is becoming a predictor of Fairview's success: when he posts at least two runs the team is undefeated (and 3-5 when he doesn't). The team also got some help courtesy of Skyler Daniel, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with one triple, two RBI, and one run.

Fairview lost a few balls and finished the game with four home runs. That's the most home runs they've managed all season.

As for Niwot, they have been struggling recently as they've lost three of their last four contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 7-7 record this season. For those keeping track at home, that's the biggest loss they have suffered since March 19th.

On Niwot's side, they saw three different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Jack Schrock, who went 1-for-2 with one stolen base.

Both teams will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. Fairview will head out to face off against Legacy at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday. As for Niwot, they will venture away from home to square off against Wheat Ridge at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday. The Farmers have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 11.67 runs per game on average), something the Cougars will no doubt try to take advantage of.
