While Tuesday's victory was certainly a team effort, someone pulling more than their own weight was underclassman Savana Whitlock. On Tuesday she was dialed in and struck out 13 batters over 6.2 innings while giving up just two earned (and three unearned) runs off eight hits. She played a big game the last time she faced Jordan, so the team probably should've seen her coming.
Whitlock's strong effort led Murray over Jordan and she'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 4:00 p.m. on Friday. Thanks in part to Whitlock's efforts, Murray will roll in on a three-game winning streak. Will Whitlock and the rest of the team keep the streak alive? Check back here after the action for a full breakdown and analysis of the contest.
