She was even better at the plate, going a perfect 2-for-2 with one home run, seven RBI, and two runs. Those seven RBI gave her a new career-high.

In other batting news, Addie King was incredible, scoring three runs and stealing a base while getting on base in all four of her plate appearances. What's more, she posted two RBI, the most she's had since back in March of 2024. The team also got some help courtesy of Rebecca Liu, who scored two runs while going 2-for-2.

Allen kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 11 hits. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Princeton only managed three hits.

Allen is on a roll lately: they've won six of their last seven games. That's provided a nice bump to their 13-13-1 record this season.
