Softball Recap: Eagle Mustangs vs. Wood River Wolverines

Suggested Video

Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Eagle). They never let the Wood River Wolverines get on the board and left with a 16-0 win on Wednesday. Perhaps unsurprisingly given the team's high-flying offense, the game also marked the team's biggest victory of the season.

Peyton Bargen was a major factor while hitting and pitching. She looked comfortable on the mound, pitching two innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. She has been consistent recently: she hasn't given up more than one earned run in four consecutive appearances. She was also stellar in the batter's box, going 1-for-2 with one home run and four RBI.

In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Emry Woods, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with one home run and two RBI. Another player making a difference was Alyssa Orchard, who scored three runs while going 2-for-2.
