There's no place like home for Mohave Accelerated, who bounced back after a loss on the road last Thursday. They were the clear victors by an 18-0 margin over the St. John Paul II Catholic Lions on Friday. Considering the Patriots have won nine contests by more than eight runs this season, Friday's blowout was nothing new.

Kennedy Lamb made a splash no matter where she played. On the mound, she struck out nine batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs or hits (and not a single walk). She has been consistent : she hasn't given up more than one walk in eight consecutive appearances. She was also stellar in the batter's box, scoring two runs and stealing three bases while getting on base in all three of her plate appearances. That's the most stolen bases she has posted since back in April of 2024.

In other batting news, Tanner Banks was incredible, going 1-for-2 with one home run, three runs, and four RBI. Another player making a difference was Megan Jones, who scored three runs and stole two bases while going 2-for-2.

Mohave Accelerated kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 12 hits. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now got at least ten hits in ten consecutive games.

Mohave Accelerated has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won nine of their last ten matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 12-2 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 13.5 runs over those games. St. John Paul II Catholic is on a four-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-4.

Mohave Accelerated has already played their next contest, a 21-0 victory against Mountainside on the 22nd. St. John Paul II Catholic has also already played their next game (against Miami), but no score has been uploaded at the time of writing.
