Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Colusa). Everything went their way against the Willows Honkers on Friday as they made off with a 23-3 win. Perhaps unsurprisingly given the team's high-flying offense, the game also marked the team's biggest victory of the season.
Jace MacKaben and Kane Nall did most of the damage at the plate: MacKaben went 4-for-5 with one home run, eight RBI, and three runs, while Nall went a perfect 5-for-5 with six RBI, four runs, and one stolen base. MacKaben is becoming a predictor of Colusa's success: when he posts at least two runs the team is 2-1 (and 2-14 when he doesn't). Kaleb Castanon also deserves some recognition as he got his first hit of the season.
