After having lost a blowout in their previous game against Marist, Huntley was happy to have turned things around on Saturday. They blew past the Leyden Eagles 9-1. The result was nothing new for the Red Raiders, who have now won 11 matchups by six runs or more so far this season.
Gretchen Huber spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered only one earned run on four hits and racked up 14 Ks.
On the hitting side, Isabella Boskey was a standout: she went a perfect 3-for-3 with two runs, two doubles, and two RBI. That's the most doubles she has posted over her last 13 contests. The team also got some help courtesy of Lyla Ginczycki, who went 2-for-4 with two runs, one triple, and one RBI.
Huntley was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .406. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Leyden only posted a batting average of .154.
Huntley is on a roll lately: they've won three of their last four games. That's provided a nice bump to their 19-12 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 9.5 runs over those games. As for Leyden, they are on a five-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 9-13.
Both squads are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. Huntley will host Cary-Grove at 4:30 p.m. on Monday. The Trojans have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 8.58 runs per game on average), something the Red Raiders will no doubt try to take advantage of. As for Leyden, they will be playing in front of their home fans against Downers Grove South at 4:45 p.m. on Monday. The Eagles' pitchers better be ready for this one: the Mustangs have averaged an impressive 7 runs per game this season.
