Pomeroy extended their losing streak (dating back to last season) to 17 on Tuesday, dropping their season record down to 0-14 in the process. They lost 13-2 to the Colton Wildcats. Unfortunately, that's the second time they've come up short against the Wildcats this season, as they also lost their prior matchup 23-1 two weeks ago.

As for Colton, they pushed their record up to 10-4 with the victory, which was their fifth straight on the road. The result was nothing new for the Wildcats, who have now won eight contests by nine runs or more so far this season.
On Colton's side, Kiya Soza made a splash no matter where she played. She looked comfortable on the mound, striking out 15 batters over seven innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off four hits (and only one walk). Soza has been consistent recently: she hasn't given up more than two walks in four consecutive appearances. She was also big at the plate, going 3-for-5 with one home run, four runs, and three RBI.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Ella Nollmeyer, who went 3-for-5 with one home run, five RBI, and three runs. Another player making a difference was Clair Moehrle, who went 3-for-5 with two runs, two doubles, and one RBI.
While Pomeroy had to take the loss, they won't have to wait long to give it another shot: the pair will be back at it again later today.
