City College strolled into their game on Thursday with a perfect record and they left with the same. They walked away with a 14-10 win over the Dunbar Poets. Give the Black Knights' hitters some serious credit: that high-scoring performance was actually the fewest runs they've scored all season.
Cheyenne Stidham was a major factor no matter where she played. She looked comfortable on the mound, striking out seven batters over 2.1 innings while giving up just one earned run off two hits (and only one walk). She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts in five consecutive appearances. She was also big at the plate, getting on base in two of her three plate appearances with four stolen bases and two runs.
In other batting news, Maliyah Coleman was a standout: she got on base in all three of her plate appearances with six stolen bases and three runs. She has been hot recently, having posted two or more stolen bases the last four times she's played. Another player making a difference was Mattisyn Lewis, who got on base in all three of her plate appearances with six stolen bases and two runs.
City College was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .444. That was just more of the same: they've now posted a batting average of .429 or higher every time they've taken the field this season.
City College pushed their record up to 8-0 with the victory, which was their third straight at home. Those home wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 23.7 runs over those games. As for Dunbar, they now have a losing record of 1-2.
