Central won the last time they faced Jacobs and things went their way on Thursday too. The Rockets put the hurt on the Golden Eagles with a sharp 8-1 victory. The win made it back-to-back victories for the Rockets.

Isabella Reed spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered a run (which was unearned) on five hits and racked up 12 Ks. She has been consistent recently: she hasn't given up a single earned run in three consecutive appearances.

At the plate, Mei Shirokawa was incredible, going 3-for-4 with two runs, one triple, and one stolen base. That triple marked the first that she has hit this season. Olivia Sutton was another key player, going 2-for-3 with two RBI.
