Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Freeburg). They blew past the Breese Central Cougars 19-2 on Tuesday. Perhaps unsurprisingly given the team's high-flying offense, the game also marked the team's biggest victory of the season.
Waeltz Aubrey was a major factor while hitting and pitching. She looked comfortable on the mound, striking out six batters over six innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off eight hits (and not a single walk). Those hits were her first of the season. She was also stellar in the batter's box, going 4-for-5 with one home run, three runs, and four RBI.
In other batting news, Kylie Whitten was a standout: she went 2-for-4 with one home run, three runs, and four RBI. Those RBI marked the first that she brought in this season. Another player making a difference was Emylee Martin, who scored three runs while going 5-for-5.
