Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Blue Ridge). Their pitchers stepped up to hand the Cornerstone Christian Cyclones a 15-0 shutout on Wednesday. The high-flying hitting performance was a huge turnaround for the Knights considering their two-run performance the contest before.
Ellie Schlieper and Lillian Enger were major factors no matter where they played. On the mound, Schlieper pitched two innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit. Meanwhile, Enger pitched one inning while giving up no earned runs or hits. Schlieper has been consistent recently: she hasn't given up more than two walks in four consecutive appearances. At bat, Schlieper went 1-for-2 with one home run and two RBI, while Enger went 1-for-2 with one home run. That's the most RBI Schlieper has posted since back in April of 2024.
