Columbia lost a heartbreaker the last time they played Firelands, but it's fair to say they got their revenge given the result of Tuesday's match. The Raiders' pitcher stepped up to hand the Falcons a 17-0 shutout on Tuesday. The result was nothing new for the Raiders, who have now won 11 games by ten runs or more so far this season.
Sadie Schulke made a splash no matter where she played. On the mound, she didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only one hit while striking out six over seven innings pitched. Schulke was also big at the plate, going 2-for-4 with two stolen bases, three runs, and two doubles. Those two stolen bases gave her a new career-high.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Grace Anderson, who went 4-for-5 with three runs, two doubles, and one triple. That's the most doubles she has posted since back in April. Natalie Miller was another key player, going 2-for-4 with two stolen bases, three runs, and one triple.
Columbia kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 16 hits. They are a perfect 12-0 when they post 11 or more hits.

The victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered a grand total of 1 runs in those games. As for Firelands, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost four of their last five contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 9-12 record this season.
