Suggested Video

The Spanaway Lake Sentinels will hit the road for the first time this season to square off against the Olympia Bears at 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday.

Spanaway Lake is leaving town to face Olympia after disappointing their home crowd in their season opener. Spanaway Lake lost 28-8 to Bellarmine Prep on Friday.

Spanaway Lake saw six different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Sienna Aguiluz, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with one home run, three runs, and four RBI. Another was Emerson Hammond, who went 2-for-3 with one double and one RBI.

Olympia not only won on Friday, but they posted their biggest win since April 24, 2024. They put the hurt on Tumwater with a sharp 12-2 victory. The high-flying hitting performance was a huge turnaround for the Bears considering their one-run performance the game before.

Ava Bautista was a major factor no matter where she played. She tossed six innings while giving up just one earned run off five hits. What's more, she posted five strikeouts, the most she's had since back in April of 2024. She was even better at the plate, firing off two home runs, three runs, and four RBI while going 3-for-4.

In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Brooklyn Crass, who went 3-for-5 with two runs, one triple, and two RBI. That's the most RBI she has posted since back in May of 2024. Sydney Potvin was another key player, going 2-for-4 with one home run and two RBI.

Olympia was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .417. That was just more of the same: they've now posted a batting average of .385 or higher every time they've taken the field this season.
