There's no place like home for Deer Lakes, who bounced back after a loss on the road last Wednesday. They walked away with a 7-3 victory over the Burrell Bucs on Friday. For the Lancers, this counts as revenge for the 10-0 win the Bucs walked away with the last time they faced one another back in May of 2023.
Siena Plummer spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered three earned runs on four hits. She has been consistent recently: she hasn't given up more than two walks in four consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, Laney Dineff was incredible, going 1-for-3 with one home run and three RBI. Those three RBI gave her a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Sophia Laurenza, who scored a run and stole two bases while going 2-for-4.
