Edinburg North won the last time they faced Raymondville and things went their way on Saturday too. The Edinburg North Cougars put the hurt on the Raymondville Bearkats with a sharp 15-4 victory. The result was nothing new for the Cougars, who have now won eight matchups by six runs or more so far this season.

On the hitting side, Edinburg North got a massive performance out of Sophia Cruz, who scored four runs while going 2-for-2. That's the most hits Cruz has posted over her last nine games. Another player making a difference was Madison Guerra, who went 2-for-4 with four RBI, one run, and one double.

Coming up, a feisty cat fight will be fought as Edinburg North Cougars take on Weslaco Panthers at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday.
