Meanwhile, Oak Ridge faced Whitney in a battle between two of the state's top teams on Thursday. The Trojans blew past the Wildcats 7-0. Considering the Trojans have won 14 games by more than five runs this season, Thursday's blowout was nothing new.

On the hitting side, Gemma Almont was incredible, going a perfect 3-for-3 with one home run, five RBI, and two runs. That's the most hits she has posted since back in April of 2024. Another player making a difference was Carmen Montes De Oca, who went 1-for-2 with two runs.
The victory was the sixth in a row for Oak Ridge, bringing their record up to 26-4. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.0 run on average over those games. As for Del Oro, their record is now 30-2.
