The Lancers might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won seven contests by seven runs or more this season.
Addie Murilla was a major factor while hitting and pitching. On the mound, she didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only two hits while striking out eight over four innings pitched. She has been consistent for a while: she hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts in ten consecutive appearances. She was also solid in the batter's box, getting on base in three of her four plate appearances with one run.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Allie Knutson, who went a perfect 3-for-3 with one home run, three runs, and one stolen base. She has been hot recently, having posted at least one stolen base the last three times she's played. Another player making a difference was Ella Gates, who went 2-for-3 with three RBI, one run, and one double.
La Crescent always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .514. The last time their OBP was this high was back in April of 2024.
La Crescent's victory was their sixth straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 13-2. Those road wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.2 runs on average over those games. As for Triton, their defeat dropped their record down to 3-10.
