Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Morenci). Their pitcher stepped up to hand the St. Augustine Catholic Wolves a 31-0 shutout on Thursday. Perhaps unsurprisingly given the team's high-flying offense, the game also marked the team's biggest victory of the season.
Cameryn Woodall made a splash no matter where she played. She didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only one hit while striking out six over four innings pitched. She has been nothing but reliable on the mound: she hasn't given up more than two walks in four consecutive appearances. She was also stellar in the batter's box, getting on base in all five of her plate appearances with five runs, three RBI, and one stolen base. Those five runs gave her a new career-high.
In other batting news, Tiara Jones and Jaliyah Hernandez did most of the damage at the plate: Jones went 4-for-5 with one home run, seven RBI, and three runs, while Hernandez went a perfect 4-for-4 with eight RBI, five runs, and two doubles. Jones has been hot recently, having posted three or more RBI the last four times she's played. The team also got some help courtesy of Ava Basteen, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with three runs, four RBI, and one stolen base.
Morenci always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .900. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.
Morenci is on a roll lately: they've won five of their last six games. That's provided a massive bump to their 14-11 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 20.2 runs over those games. As for St. Augustine Catholic, they are on a four-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 7-12.
As of now, neither Morenci nor the Wolves have any future games scheduled.
