Pine Lake Prep put another one in the bag on Tuesday to keep their perfect season alive. Their pitchers stepped up to hand the Christ the King Crusaders a 17-0 shutout. The Pride have seen this before: they got the W the last time they saw the Crusaders, too.
Emery Jensen and Emma Rette made a splash while hitting and pitching. Throwing, Jensen struck out six batters over two innings while giving up no earned runs or hits (and not a single walk). Meanwhile, Rette pitched two innings while giving up no earned runs off two hits. The dominant performance also gave her a new career-low in earned runs (zero). At the plate, Jensen scored a run and stole a base while going 1-for-4, while Rette scored a run while going 2-for-3. Jensen is crushing it when it comes to stolen bases: she's snagged at least one every time she's taken the field this season.
