Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Liberty Christian). Everything went their way against the Goldendale Timberwolves on Thursday as they made off with an 18-8 win. The high-flying hitting performance was a huge turnaround for the Patriots considering their two-run performance the match before.
Bella Rogel was a major factor while hitting and pitching. She struck out six batters over 2.2 innings while giving up no earned runs or hits (and not a single walk). She has been nothing but reliable on the mound: she hasn't given up more than two walks in nine consecutive appearances. She was also stellar in the batter's box, getting on base in all five of her plate appearances with two stolen bases, two runs, and two RBI. Those two stolen bases gave her a new career-high.
