The Jefferson Cougars will look to take advantage of their home field for the first time this season as they take on the Washington Patriots at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Both come into the matchup bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
Jefferson is coming home in high spirits after they had to open their season on the road against Musselman. Jefferson skirted past Musselman 4-3. The Cougars haven't had any issues with the Applemen recently, as the game was their seventh consecutive victory against them.
Jersey Rummel and Brooke Allen made a splash while hitting and pitching. Throwing, Rummel struck out six batters over four innings while giving up just two earned runs off four hits (and only one walk). Meanwhile, Allen pitched 2.1 innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit. The dominant performance also gave her a new career-low in earned runs (zero). At bat, Rummel went 1-for-4 with one home run, while Allen went 2-for-3 with one double and one RBI.
They weren't the only ones making solid contact as five players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Chloe Cowan, who scored a run while going 2-for-3.
Jefferson kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 11 hits. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Musselman only managed five hits.
Meanwhile, Washington had already won two in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 7 runs) and they went ahead and made it three on Tuesday. Everything went their way against the Cardinals as they made off with an 11-1 win. That's two games straight that the Patriots have won by exactly ten runs.
Carly Constantino and Gabby Bibb did most of the damage at the plate: Constantino went 2-for-3 with two triples, three RBI, and two runs, while Bibb scored three runs while going 3-for-3. What's more, Bibb posted three RBI, the most she's had since back in March of 2024. The team also got some help courtesy of Addison Musser, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with two runs, one triple, and one RBI.
