Kellam barely beat Cox the last time the pair played, but that sure wasn't the case this time around. The Knights blew past the Falcons 9-3 on Friday. Considering the Knights have won 12 games by more than five runs this season, Friday's blowout was nothing new.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Salem). Their pitchers stepped up to hand Norview a 23-0 shutout on Monday. The victory continues a trend for the Sundevils in their matchups with the Pilots: they've now won four in a row.
Emma Check was a standout: she went a perfect 3-for-3 with three runs, three RBI, and one stolen base. Those three RBI gave her a new career-high. Madison Twiford was another key player, going 3-for-5 with three RBI, two runs, and one stolen base.

Kellam pushed their record up to 18-1 with the win, which was their 13th straight on the road dating back to last season. The road victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 10.4 runs over those games. As for Salem, they picked up their first road win, bumping their record up to 6-12.
Everything went Kellam's way against Salem in their previous matchup back in April, as Kellam made off with a 15-0 victory. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Knights since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
