Winning always takes teamwork, but on Wednesday Maleah Lovell stepped things up a notch to give Ashe County the 'W'. Lovell struck out 13 batters over 4.2 innings while giving up just two earned (and one unearned) runs off five hits (and only one walk), which was good enough to set a new career-high in strikeouts.

Looking ahead, Lovell and Ashe County will take on Hibriten in a tournament on Wednesday. The Huskies got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Panthers thanks in part to Lovell: she struck out six batters over five innings while giving up just two earned runs off seven hits (and only one walk). Can she match (or beat) that stellar performance? Come back here after the game to get an analysis of the match and other softball content.
