Lumen Christi Catholic came out on top against Adrian on Monday thanks in part to the team's impressive seven-run first inning. The Titans blew past the Maples 12-2. The result was nothing new for the Titans, who have now won 19 matchups by six runs or more so far this season.

Ollie Powers was a major factor while hitting and pitching. She pitched five innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off two hits. Powers was also stellar in the batter's box, going a perfect 3-for-3 with three runs, two doubles, and one RBI. That's the most doubles she has posted over her last nine contests.

In other batting news, Lumen Christi Catholic let Mallory Arcaro and Ava Cumberworth run wild. Arcaro went a perfect 1-for-1 with one triple, one run, and one RBI, while Cumberworth went 1-for-2 with two RBI and one run. Those two RBI gave Cumberworth a new career-high. Taylor Furnas was another key player, getting on base in two of her three plate appearances with one run and one RBI.

Lumen Christi Catholic has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won 13 of their last 15 games. That's provided a nice bump to their 26-9 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.5 runs on average over those games. As for Adrian, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 7-14.
