Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask The Colony). Their pitchers stepped up to hand the Turner Lions an 18-0 shutout on Tuesday. With that victory, the Cougars brought their scoring average up to 6.3 runs per game.

Rodrigo Oquendo Arreaza and Colton Wood dominated on the mound. Oquendo Arreaza tossed two innings while giving up no earned runs or hits, while Wood tossed two innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit. The dominant performance also gave Wood a new career-high in strikeouts (two).

On the hitting side, The Colony let Trey Rangel and Riley Stewart run wild. Rangel went 3-for-4 with one home run, six RBI, and two stolen bases, while Stewart went 2-for-3 with one home run, three RBI, and two runs. Those six RBI gave Rangel a new career-high.
