Emma Haglund spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered only one earned (and one unearned) run on five hits and racked up seven Ks. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than one walk in three consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, Bella Rogel and Mady Getchell did most of the damage at the plate: Rogel went 2-for-4 with two runs, one triple, and two RBI, while Getchell went 2-for-4 with one home run and two RBI. That triple marked the first that Rogel has hit this season. The team also got some help courtesy of Kaylee Frankenfield, who went 2-for-4 with one stolen base, one run, and one RBI.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Warden). They never let Tri-Cities Prep get on the board and left with a 26-0 victory on Friday. The Cougars haven't had any issues with the Jaguars recently, as the game was their ninth consecutive win against them.
Liberty Christian's victory was their third straight at home, which pushed their record up to 10-5. The home wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 11.7 runs over those games. As for Warden, their victory bumped their record up to 6-9.
Liberty Christian suffered a grim 14-2 defeat to Warden in their previous matchup back in March of 2024. Can the Patriots avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
