The Wagner Red Raiders will head out to take on the Colome Cowboys on Monday. Wagner will aim to continue their three-game streak of scoring more runs each contest than the last.
Wagner couldn't beat Sioux Falls Christian on Thursday even though they stacked four runs on them in the sixth inning. The Red Raiders fell 10-5 to the Chargers.
Lydia Yost put in work while hitting and pitching. On the mound, she tossed 4.2 innings while giving up just one earned (and four unearned) runs off four hits. Yost was even better at the plate, going 2-for-3 with one triple, one stolen base, and two RBI. That triple marked the first that she has hit this season.
Yost wasn't the only one making solid contact as four players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Mara Wright, who went 1-for-3 with one stolen base, one run, and one double. Ravyn Medricky also deserves some recognition as she hit her first triple of the season.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Colome). Everything went their way against Stanley County on Tuesday as they made off with a 23-5 victory. Considering the Cowboys have won three matches by more than 12 runs this season, Tuesday's blowout was nothing new.
The win made it two in a row for Colome and bumps their season record up to 5-5. The victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 20.0 runs over those games. As for Wagner, they have been struggling recently as they've lost eight of their last nine games. That's put a noticeable dent in their 5-16 record this season.
