Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Los Altos). Everything went their way against Rowland on Thursday as they made off with a 17-2 victory. The Conquerors haven't had any issues with the Raiders recently, as the game was their ninth consecutive win against them.
Veida Aikey made a splash while hitting and pitching. On the mound, she didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only two hits over five innings pitched. Aikey was also big at the plate, getting on base in three of her four plate appearances with one run and one RBI.
In other batting news, Alliyah Zamano was incredible, going 2-for-3 with three RBI, two runs, and one triple. Esme Soto was another key player, going 1-for-3 with two runs, one stolen base, and two RBI.
Los Altos' record is now 3-4. As for Sonora, the victory got them back to even at 4-4.
Monday's matchup will be a test for both teams' pitchers. Sonora hasn't had any issues making contact this season, having earned a batting average of .424. However, it's not like Los Altos struggles in that department as they've averaged .337. With both teams so capable at the plate, fans should be ready for an impressive hitting performance.
Sonora was able to grind out a solid win over Los Altos when the teams last played back in March of 2024, winning 5-1. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Raiders since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
