Oxford had already won two in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 21.5 runs), and they went ahead and made it three in Thursday's first game. They had just enough and edged the Udall Eagles out 9-8. That result was just more of the same for these two, as Oxford also won the last time the pair played back in May of 2023.
Sophia Bain spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered five earned (and three unearned) runs on 11 hits and racked up ten Ks.
On the hitting side, Kira Selenke was incredible, going 3-for-4 with a triple, two RBI, and a run. She is on a roll when it comes to hits, as she's now hit three or more in the last five games she's played. Madison Mayfield was another key contributor, scoring a run while going 2-for-5.
Oxford pushed their record up to 6-4 with that victory, which was their third straight on the road. Those good results were due in large part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 17.3 runs per game. As for Udall, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 1-4-1.
The teams didn't have to wait long for a rematch: Oxford beat Udall by a score of 20-1 later that day.
