Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Norrix). Their pitcher stepped up to hand the Central Bearcats a 28-0 shutout on Thursday. While the Knights didn't have the best season last year (they finished 11-16), it's starting to look like those struggles are a thing of the past.
Corey Stanfill was a major factor while hitting and pitching. He struck out six batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs off two hits (and not a single walk). Stanfill was also stellar in the batter's box, going 3-for-4 with three runs, four RBI, and two doubles.
In other batting news, Norrix got a massive performance out of Trey Iocca, who went 3-for-5 with five RBI, three runs, and one triple. Another player making a difference was Sayani Jones, who got on base in all five of his plate appearances with five runs, one stolen base, and one RBI.
Norrix always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .744. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.
Norrix pushed their record up to 7-5 with the victory, which was their third straight on the road. The road wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.0 runs on average over those games. As for Central, they are on a 17-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-8.
Norrix will have a chance to go back-to-back against the Bearcats: the pair will be back at it again later today.
