Fairfield was handed a heart-breaking two-run defeat in their last match, but they sure didn't let that happen against Groesbeck on Tuesday. The Eagles blew past the Goats 10-3. The result was nothing new for the Eagles, who have now won nine games by six runs or more so far this season.
Haylee Allen made a splash no matter where she played. On the mound, she struck out 11 batters over seven innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off five hits. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts any time she's pitched this season. She was also stellar in the batter's box, going 2-for-4 with one home run, one stolen base, and one double.
In other batting news, Madelyn Morrison was a standout: she scored two runs while going 2-for-4. Kaylie Ridge was another key player, scoring a run and stealing three bases while getting on base in two of her four plate appearances.
Fairfield kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 11 hits. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Groesbeck only managed five hits.
