Ray continues to improve, besting her previous point total in each of the last three games she's played. Maggie McNeese was another key player, scoring two runs and stealing a base while going 1-for-3.

Littlefield kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 12 hits. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now got at least eight hits in five consecutive matchups.

Looking ahead, Littlefield is taking a road trip to square off against Shallowater at 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday.
