Trinity had lost six straight on the road dating back to last season, but on Monday they dropped down to 6-15 to make it seven. They fell 4-1 to the V.R. Eaton Eagles. The Trojans were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Eagles apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played back in April of 2025.
As for V.R. Eaton, they are on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 13-4-1 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.0 runs on average over those games.
For V.R. Eaton's part, Bethany Bolton spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered a run (which was unearned) on six hits and racked up eight Ks. Bolton has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't tossed less than six strikeouts in six consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Erin Jacinto, who got on base in all three of her plate appearances with two runs, one stolen base, and one double. That stolen base was her first of the season. Another player making a difference was Faith Zajac, who went 2-for-3 with two runs.
