Roane County waltzed into their contest on Saturday with seven straight wins... but they left with eight. They came within a single run of losing the streak, but they secured a 1-0 W against the Eagleton College & Career Academy Royals.

Sailor Presley was a major factor while hitting and pitching. She looked comfortable on the mound, keeping things locked down with no earned runs or hits while striking out 17 over seven innings pitched. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than two walks any time she's pitched this season. She was also solid in the batter's box, going 2-for-3 with one stolen base and one run.

Roane County pushed their record up to 20-2 with the victory, which was their eighth straight at home. The home wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 0.9 runs on average over those games. As for Eagleton College & Career Academy, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost three of their last four matches. That's put a noticeable dent in their 20-17-1 record this season.
