AVA MILLER made a big impact while hitting and pitching. She tossed three innings while giving up just one earned (and three unearned) runs off two hits.

Springstead's victory was their fourth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 6-2. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.3 runs on average over those games.

Both Wesley Chapel and Springstead just can't seem to miss. Wesley Chapel has been making plenty of contact this season, having averaged 10.1 hits per game. However, it's not like Springstead struggles in that department as they've been averaging only 4.2 hits. With both teams so capable at the plate, fans should be ready for an impressive hitting performance.
