Gilmer had already won four in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 6.0 runs) and they went ahead and made it five on Thursday. They snuck past the Chestatee War Eagles with a 2-0 win.

Gilmer saw seven different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Jaylee Mcdaniel, who got on base in all three of her plate appearances while logging 1 run and 2 walks.

Gilmer's pitchers kept the bats quiet and finished the game with only one hit allowed. They have not allowed that few hits since September 15th, when they also allowed one vs. Chestatee.

Gilmer has now won four of their last five games at home. That's provided a nice bump to their 15-12 record this season. It's not like the team was facing easy opposition over that stretch either, as it included 4-1 Dawson County and 4-1 Pickens (their opponents had an average overall winning percentage of 67.7% over those games). As for Chestatee, they have now lost 10 of their last 11 games on the road. That's done some real damage to their 10-16 record this season.

We've got plenty of inter-region action coming up soon. Gilmer is set to take on their familiar foe Pickens at 5:00 p.m. on Monday. Meanwhile, Chestatee will square off against their in-conference opponent North Hall at 5:30 p.m. on Monday.
