Softball Recap: Beulah's Win on Monday Extends Winning Streak to Five

13 must be Beulah's lucky number: they beat Washburn with that score not once but twice on Monday. The Miners beat the Cardinals by the very same score they won with in their prior game: 13-2. The result was nothing new for the Miners, who have now won five contests by 11 runs or more so far this season.

Addie Dale-Geiger was a major factor no matter where she played. On the mound, she struck out nine batters over five innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off two hits. She has been consistent: she hasn't tossed less than six strikeouts in seven consecutive appearances. She was also big at the plate, firing off two home runs, five RBI, and three runs while going 3-for-4. With that strong performance, she is now averaging an impressive 2.1 runs per game.

In other batting news, Beulah let Peyten Horning and Cassie Christensen run wild. Horning got on base in three of her four plate appearances with one stolen base, one run, and one RBI, while Christensen got on base in three of her four plate appearances with three runs. That stolen base marked the first that Horning has snagged this season. The team also got some help courtesy of Elli Weidner, who went 2-for-3 with two runs and one triple.

Beulah lost a few balls and finished the game with two home runs. That's the most home runs they've managed all season.
