Hoeper was also solid in the batter's box, scoring two runs and stealing a base while going 1-for-3. She is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as she's now snagged at least one in each of the last three games she's played.

Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Cuba City). They were the clear victors by a 17-0 margin over Darlington on Thursday. The Cubans might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won three matchups by six runs or more this season.
Cuba City pushed their record up to 5-1 with the win, which was their 19th straight at home dating back to last season. Those home victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.0 runs on average over those games. As for Iowa-Grant, their record now sits at 5-1.
