Cedar was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .393. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Canyon View only posted a batting average of .105.

The victory was the fourth in a row for Cedar, bringing their record up to 20-5. Those wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.0 runs on average over those games. As for Canyon View, their defeat was their fifth straight on the road, which dropped their record down to 6-16.

Looking ahead, Cedar will face off against American Fork at 3:30 p.m. on Friday. As for Canyon View, they will take on Juab at 3:00 p.m. on Thursday. The Wasps have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 9.94 runs per game on average), something the Falcons will no doubt try to take advantage of.
