With a playoff win on the line, Canyon View rose to the challenge on Saturday. They put the hurt on the Chaparral Firebirds with a sharp 8-2 victory. Considering the Jaguars have won 20 matchups by more than five runs this season, Saturday's blowout was nothing new.

Emily Davis spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered just two earned runs on four hits and racked up 11 Ks. She has been consistent: she hasn't tossed less than eight strikeouts in six consecutive appearances.

On the hitting side, Brooke Downs and Rylen Buchberger did most of the damage at the plate: Downs went 2-for-4 with one home run, three RBI, and two runs, while Buchberger went 3-for-4 with one triple, one stolen base, and one run. That's the most runs Downs has posted since back in April. Another player making a difference was Makenzie Jones, who went 2-for-3 with two runs, one stolen base, and one RBI.

Canyon View was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .407. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Chaparral only posted a batting average of .160.

Canyon View pushed their record up to 25-4 with the win, which was their 20th straight at home dating back to last season. Those home victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 12.0 runs over those games. As for Chaparral, their defeat dropped their record down to 14-17.

Canyon View has already played their next contest, a 3-1 win against Cienega on the 6th. Chaparral does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
