Godwin put another one in the bag on Wednesday to keep their perfect season alive. They blew past the Hanover Hawks 8-1. The result was nothing new for the Eagles, who have now won ten matchups by seven runs or more so far this season.

Katelyn Hubley made a big impact while hitting and pitching. She looked comfortable on the mound, striking out 13 batters over seven innings while giving up just one earned run off four hits. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than one earned run in six consecutive appearances. She was also big at the plate, going 2-for-4 with one home run, three RBI, and two runs.

In other batting news, Carter Dunham was excellent, going 2-for-3 with one stolen base, one run, and one double. She is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as she's now snagged at least one in each of the last five games she's played. Bella Ross was another key player, going 2-for-4 with two RBI and one double.

Godwin kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 12 hits. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now got at least nine hits in seven consecutive games.

Godwin's victory was their 17th straight on the road dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 14-0. As for Hanover, they have been struggling recently as they've lost three of their last four contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 7-6 record this season.

Both teams are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. Godwin will host Glen Allen at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
