Melanie Hughes gave up the fewest walks she has since back in April on Friday. She wasn't messing around, striking out nine batters over six innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off four hits (and not a single walk). The pitching appearance was her fourth straight with two or fewer walks.

Coming up, Hughes and Basic will face off against Doral Academy Red Rock at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday. Hughes has dominated as far as strikeouts are concerned (she's averaged 5.5 per game this season), but she's got her work cut out for her considering the Dragons have only allowed 3.93 per game this season.
