Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Canyon). They were the clear victors by a 14-5 margin over El Modena on Monday.

Kyle Mills was a standout: he went 3-for-5 with four RBI, one triple, and one run. Those three hits gave him a new career-high. Kyle Nulph was another key player, going 2-for-5 with three RBI, one triple, and one run.
Canyon is on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five games. That's provided a nice bump to their 10-5 record this season.
