North Penn-Liberty put another one in the bag on Tuesday to keep their perfect season alive. They walked away with a 6-3 win over the Towanda Black Knights. That result was just more of the same for these two, as the Mountie also won the last time the pair played back in April of 2024.
Elyna Booth spent all 8.2 innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered just two earned (and one unearned) runs on five hits and racked up 14 Ks. She has been consistent recently: she hasn't tossed less than nine strikeouts any time she's pitched this season.
At the plate, the team relied heavily on Haley Litzelman, who scored two runs and stole three bases. Those three stolen bases gave her a new career-high. Madison Smith was another key player, scoring a run and stealing a base while going 2-for-4.
