Jayden Hootman gave up the fewest hits she has over her last 11 matches on Friday. She was dynamite, striking out eight batters over five innings while giving up just one earned run off three 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 three consecutive appearances.
Looking ahead, Hootman and Pembroke will head out to take on Alexander at 5:00 p.m. on Monday. The Dragons got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Trojans thanks in part to Hootman: she pitched seven innings while giving up three earned (and three unearned) runs off eight hits. Can she match (or beat) that stellar performance? Check MaxPreps after the action for a full breakdown of the game and more softball content.
