Crest proved they can win big last Tuesday (they won by ten) and on Friday they proved they can win the close ones too. They won by a run and slipped past the Kings Mountain Mountaineers 2-1. The two-run effort marked the Chargers' lowest-scoring matchup of the season, but in the end it didn't matter.
Crest's victory was truly a team effort as three different players contributed at least one hit. One of them was Ella Shope, who went 1-for-2 with one double. That double was Shope's first of the season.
