Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Roosevelt). They blew past the Franklin Quakers 21-6 on Thursday. The result was nothing new for the Roughriders, who have now won 11 matches by six runs or more so far this season.
Ruby Frish was a major factor no matter where she played. On the mound, she struck out 11 batters over seven innings while giving up just two earned (and four unearned) runs off six hits. With that strong performance, she is now averaging an impressive 5.2 strikeouts per game. She was also solid in the batter's box, going 1-for-4 with one run and one RBI.
In other batting news, Roosevelt got a massive performance out of Leslie Homan, who went 4-for-6 with three runs, four RBI, and one triple. That's the most hits Homan has posted since back in May of 2024. Zulaykha Armstrachan was another key player, going 3-for-5 with four runs, four RBI, and one triple.
Roosevelt was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .395. That was just more of the same: they've now posted a batting average of .300 or higher in seven consecutive contests.
Roosevelt is on a roll lately: they've won six of their last seven games. That's provided a nice bump to their 15-7 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.7 runs on average over those games. As for Franklin, their loss was their third straight at home, which dropped their record down to 8-13-1.
Roosevelt will have a chance to go back-to-back against the Quakers: the pair's next game is a rematch scheduled at 4:00 p.m. on Friday.
