Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask North Point). They were the clear victors by a 22-1 margin over St. Charles on Thursday. Considering the Eagles have won eight matches by more than seven runs this season, Thursday's blowout was nothing new.

Alyssa Blaney and Sophia Weedin made a big impact while hitting and pitching. Throwing, Blaney struck out nine batters over 3.1 innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit (and not a single walk). Meanwhile, Weedin tossed 1.2 innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit. The dominant performance also gave her a new career-high in strikeouts (four). At the plate, Blaney got on base in three of her four plate appearances with four runs and one RBI, while Weedin got on base in three of her four plate appearances with two runs and one RBI.

In other batting news, North Point let Emily Yanick and Aminah Ayyad run wild. Yanick went 3-for-4 with five RBI, two runs, and one double, while Ayyad got on base in four of her five plate appearances with three runs and two RBI. That's the most RBI Yanick has posted since back in May of 2024. Ava Scott was another key player, getting on base in three of her four plate appearances with two RBI and one run.

North Point always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .825. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.

The victory made it two in a row for North Point and bumps their season record up to 10-7. Those wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 17.5 runs over those games. As for St. Charles, they are on a ten-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-13.

We've got plenty of inter-region action coming up soon. North Point will face off against rival Leonardtown at 4:30 p.m. on Monday. Meanwhile, St. Charles is set to take on their familiar foe Westlake on Monday.
