The Mount Si Wildcats will face off against the Inglemoor Vikings at 6:30 p.m. on Monday. Mount Si is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 12.9 runs per game this season.

Mount Si took a loss when they played away from home on Friday, but their home fans gave them all the motivation they needed on Saturday. They came out on top in a nail-biter against West Valley, sneaking past 4-2. Those four runs were actually the fewest the Wildcats have put up all season, but given the result they're probably not too concerned.

Eleanor Riley spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered just two earned runs on four hits and racked up 12 Ks. She has been consistent recently: she hasn't tossed less than nine strikeouts in three consecutive appearances.

On the hitting side, Mount Si's victory was truly a team effort as four different players contributed at least one hit. One of them was Ally Hetzel, who went 1-for-2 with one double and one RBI. Anna Braukus was another, scoring a run while going 1-for-2.

Meanwhile, Inglemoor waltzed into their match on Friday with two straight wins... but they left with three. They never let the Red Wolves get on the board and left with a 7-0 win. The Vikings might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won eight contests by seven runs or more this season.

Alexa Saladin (2025) (PLU) was excellent, scoring two runs and stealing two bases while going 1-for-3. That's the most stolen bases she has posted since back in March. Another player making a difference was Kiera Pritchard (2026), who scored a run and stole three bases while going 1-for-2.

Mount Si has been performing well recently as they've won seven of their last nine games. That's provided a nice bump to their 9-4 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 14.8 runs over those games. As for Inglemoor, their win bumped their record up to 11-3-1.

Mount Si took their victory against Inglemoor in their previous meeting back in March by a conclusive 10-2 score. Will the Wildcats repeat their success, or do the Vikings have a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
