Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Elberta). They blew past the Rain Red Raiders 23-0 on Tuesday. The Warriors might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won 14 matchups by seven runs or more this season.
Madison Willis made a big impact no matter where she played. She pitched three innings while giving up no earned runs off two hits. What's more, she posted five strikeouts, the most she's had over her last six contests. She was also big at the plate, getting on base in all three of her plate appearances with three runs.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Ava Jennings, who went a perfect 4-for-4 with four runs, five RBI, and one triple. Those four hits gave her a new career-high. Blakely Hooper also deserves some recognition as she launched her first home run of the season.
Elberta was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .700. That's the best batting average they've posted all season.
Elberta pushed their record up to 18-23-1 with the win, which was their third straight at home. The home victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 18.7 runs over those games. As for Rain, they are on an eight-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 0-16-1.
Elberta didn't take long to hit the field again: they've already played their next game, a 13-2 win against UMS-Wright Prep on the 29th. Rain does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
