Bishop Kenny came out on top against Sandalwood on Wednesday thanks in part to the team's impressive eight-run fifth inning. The Crusaders took their contest against the Saints 11-6. This was payback for the Crusaders, who suffered a 2-0 loss the last time these two teams met.

Sophia Mulkey made a big impact while hitting and pitching. On the mound, she tossed seven innings while giving up three earned (and three unearned) runs off eight hits. Mulkey was also solid in the batter's box, going 1-for-3 with two runs and one RBI. That's the most runs she has posted since back in April of 2025.

In other batting news, Maris Pasko and Brooke Bizzarri did most of the damage at the plate: Pasko went 3-for-5 with two RBI, one run, and one double, while Bizzarri got on base in three of her five plate appearances with two runs and two RBI. That double marked the first that Pasko has hit this season. Another player making a difference was Emma Serra, who went 2-for-4 with one stolen base, one run, and one RBI.

The victory made it two in a row for Bishop Kenny and bumps their season record up to 4-7. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 11.5 runs over those games. As for Sandalwood, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 7-5.

Coming up, Bishop Kenny will be playing in front of their home fans against Wolfson at 5:15 p.m. on Thursday. The Crusaders' pitchers better be ready for this one: the Wolfpack have averaged an impressive 11 runs per game this season. As for Sandalwood, they will venture away from home to take on Providence School at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday. The Stallions have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 11 runs per game on average), something the Saints will no doubt try to take advantage of.
