Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Cedaredge). Their pitcher stepped up to hand the Aspen Skiers a 23-0 shutout on Saturday. Considering the Bruins have won four matches by more than nine runs this season, Saturday's blowout was nothing new.
Kiera Stroh and Kimbry Hebert did most of the damage at the plate: Stroh scored four runs and stole a base while going 3-for-3, while Hebert scored four runs and stole a base while getting on base in all four of her plate appearances. Hebert is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as she's now stolen at least one in the last three games she's played. Jewel Laliberte was another key player, scoring three runs and stealing two bases while going 2-for-3.
Perhaps unsurprisingly given the score, Cedaredge kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 20 hits. That's the most hits they've posted since back in September of 2023.
The victory made it two in a row for Cedaredge and bumps their season record up to 5-5. As for Aspen, they are on a 16-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-3.
