The Cougars came out on top against the Huskies on Monday by a score of 10-0 (the very same score they lost by in their prior game).

In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Anthony Rodriguez, who went 1-for-2 with two RBI, one run, and one double. Roberto Solares also deserves some recognition as he brought in his first RBI of the season.
