Sylvan Hills waltzed into their game on Tuesday with three straight wins... but they left with four. They put the hurt on the Parkview Patriots with a sharp 17-1 victory. The result was nothing new for the Bears, who have now won seven contests by 14 runs or more so far this season.

Jordyn Smith - 2028 looked comfortable as she struck out six batters over three innings while giving up just one earned run off two hits (and not a single walk).

At the plate, the team relied heavily on Ryanne Pozza - 2026, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with one home run, five RBI, and three runs. Those three runs gave her a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Brylee Overman - 2025, who scored three runs and stole two bases while going 2-for-2.

Sylvan Hills always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .640. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Parkview only posted an OBP of .182.

Sylvan Hills pushed their record up to 9-3 with the win, which was their seventh straight on the road. Those road victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 0.9 runs on average over those games.
