Superior let Noelle Duarte and Stephanie Lopez run wild. Duarte went 1-for-2 with three runs and one RBI, while Lopez went 2-for-4 with two runs, one stolen base, and one double. Lopez is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as she's now snagged at least one in each of the last five games she's played. Kady Toner also deserves some recognition as she hit her first double of the season.
Superior hit smart and finished the game with only two strikeouts. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Ray struck out eight times.
Meanwhile, Hayden hadn't done well against San Manuel recently (they were 2-7 in their previous nine matchups), but they didn't let the past get in their way on Friday. The Lobos never let the Miners get on the board and left with a 15-0 victory. The Lobos are also no stranger to big wins: their blowout was the third game they've won by 6+ runs this season.
Superior's win was their fifth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 8-1-1. The home victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.6 runs on average over those games. As for Hayden, they now have a winning record of 5-4.
Superior might still be hurting after the 14-8 loss they got from Hayden in their previous meeting back in May of 2025. Can the Panthers avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
