Etna had already won three in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 5.3 runs) and they went ahead and made it four on Friday. They put the hurt on the Trinity Wolves with a sharp 15-3 victory. The result was nothing new for the Lions, who have now won three games by 11 runs or more so far this season.
Jane Thackeray was a major factor while hitting and pitching. She struck out ten batters over five innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off one hit (and only one walk). She has been nothing but reliable on the mound: she hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts in five consecutive appearances. She was also big at the plate, scoring two runs while going 3-for-4.
In other batting news, Etna let Macie McNames and Kami Hyatt run wild. McNames scored two runs and stole a base while going 2-for-4, while Hyatt scored four runs while getting on base in all four of her plate appearances. Another player making a difference was Addison Roath, who scored two runs while going 1-for-2.
