York faced Pickens in a battle between two of the state's top teams on Thursday. The Cougars beat the Blue Flame by the very same score they won with in their prior game: 3-1. The win was nothing new for the Cougars as they're now sitting on 17 straight.
Layla Clayton spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered a run (which was unearned) on four hits. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts in 14 consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, York saw five different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Peyton Brooks, who went 1-for-3 with one run and one double.
York's victory was their eighth straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 22-3. Those road wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 10.5 runs over those games. As for Pickens, their defeat ended a nine-game streak of wins at home and dropped them to 18-2.
Looking ahead, York will square off against A.C. Flora at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday. The two teams have allowed few runs on average (the Cougars 1.9, the Falcons 3.3) so any runs scored will be well earned. Pickens does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
