Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask South Point). They never let the Huss Huskies get on the board and left with a 17-0 win on Tuesday. That's more bragging rights for the Red Raiders, who also won the pair's last head-to-head.
The team relied heavily on Ella Gibson, who scored two runs and stole three bases while going 2-for-2. What's more, she posted three RBI, the most she's had since back in March of 2024. Another player making a difference was Madison Bridges, who scored a run while going 1-for-2.
South Point was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .462. They are a perfect 4-0 when they post a batting average of .375 or better.
The victory made it two in a row for South Point and bumps their season record up to 4-3. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 16.0 runs over those games. As for Huss, their defeat was their tenth straight on the road dating back to last season, which dropped their record down to 0-5.
Both squads will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. South Point will square off against Lincolnton at 6:00 p.m. on Wednesday. South Point is facing Lincolnton at the right time seeing as Lincolnton is stuck on a three-game losing streak. As for Huss, they will challenge Ashbrook at 6:00 p.m. on Friday. Ashbrook has struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 15.3 runs per game on average), something Huss will no doubt try to take advantage of.
