While University put up plenty of runs on Friday, the same can't be said for Estancia. The Trojans blew past the Eagles 23-0. The Trojans might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won nine matchups by six runs or more this season.
Carson Cruz was a major factor while hitting and pitching. She looked comfortable on the mound, not allowing a single earned run and allowing only two hits while striking out 11 over five innings pitched. She has been consistent recently: she hasn't tossed less than six strikeouts in four consecutive appearances. She was also big at the plate, going 2-for-3 with two runs and one triple. That triple marked the first that she has hit this season.
In other batting news, Gidget Smith was a standout: she went a perfect 4-for-4 with six RBI, two runs, and one double. Those four hits gave her a new career-high. The team also got some help courtesy of Jessica Hu, who went 4-for-5 with four RBI, two runs, and two doubles.
