Everything went their way against the Lakeland Vikings as they made off with a 15-3 win. Considering the Eagles have won seven matches by more than six runs this season, Tuesday's blowout was nothing new.

Addie Atnip was another key player, getting on base in all four of her plate appearances with three runs and one stolen base.

Jasper is on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 9-7 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 12.2 runs over those games.
