Millikan had already won two in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 7.5 runs) and they went ahead and made it three on Wednesday. Their pitchers stepped up to hand the Jordan Panthers an 11-0 shutout. The Rams might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won eight contests by eight runs or more this season.

Lauren Cantwell looked comfortable as she tossed one inning while giving up no earned runs or hits. She has been consistent: she hasn't given up more than two walks in five consecutive appearances.

At the plate, the team relied heavily on Lauryn Kim, who went a perfect 1-for-1 with two runs and one RBI. Those two runs gave her a new career-high. Jordyn Pacheco also deserves some recognition as she brought in her first RBI of the season.

Millikan hit smart and finished the game with only one strikeout. The team has now struck out at least four batters in eight consecutive games.

Millikan pushed their record up to 16-8 with the victory, which was their third straight at home. The home wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.0 run on average over those games. As for Jordan, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost three of their last four matchups. That's put a noticeable dent in their 5-7 record this season.

Millikan wasted no time getting back out on the field and has already played their next contest, a 5-1 victory against Woodrow Wilson on the 1st. As for Jordan, they have also already played their next game, a 15-1 defeat against Long Beach Poly on the 1st.
