Andrew Jackson extended their winning streak to four on Tuesday, bumping them up to 4-1. They came within a single run of losing the streak, but they secured a 2-1 W against the North Central Knights. For those keeping track at home, that's the closest victory the Volunteers have posted since March 25, 2025.

Having lost for the first time this season, North Central fell to 12-1. The game marked their lowest-scoring matchup so far this season.

For North Central's part, Mackenzie Melton spent all ten innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered two runs (both of which were unearned) on two hits and racked up 20 Ks. Melton has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't tossed less than eight strikeouts in 12 consecutive appearances.

At the plate, North Central saw two different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Serenity Williams, who went 2-for-4 with one stolen base and one RBI.
