Parkland won the last time they faced William Allen and things went their way on Wednesday too. The Trojans were the clear victors by a 14-4 margin over the Canaries. Considering the Trojans have won seven matches by more than five runs this season, Wednesday's blowout was nothing new.

Sawyer Marsteller tossed a big game, tossing five innings while giving up three earned (and one unearned) runs off five hits. He has been consistent: he hasn't given up more than two walks in seven consecutive appearances.

At the plate, Parkland got a massive performance out of Ben Weninger, who went 1-for-4 with one home run and four RBI. Those four RBI gave Weninger a new career-high. The team also got some help courtesy of Peyton Scherff, who got on base in three of his four plate appearances with two runs, one stolen base, and two RBI.

Parkland always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .579. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as William Allen only posted an OBP of .333.

The victory was the third in a row for Parkland, bringing their record up to 11-2. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 12.7 runs over those games. As for William Allen, they have been struggling recently as they've lost seven of their last eight contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 2-13 record this season.

Parkland will face off against Whitehall at 6:30 p.m. on Friday. The Trojans are on a four-game streak of home wins, the Zephyrs a three-game streak of away wins, meaning someone's leaving a streak behind. As for William Allen, they will challenge Emmaus at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The last five games the Hornets have played have been within two runs, so don't be surprised if it's a close one.
