Lake-Lehman's game last Monday was a loss, but they didn't let that memory haunt them on Thursday. They were the clear victors by an 11-2 margin over the Western Wayne Wildcats. Considering the Knights have won 14 matchups by more than five runs this season, Thursday's blowout was nothing new.
Hannah Chipego spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered only one earned (and one unearned) run on three hits and racked up 13 Ks. She has been consistent for a while: she hasn't tossed less than seven strikeouts any time she's pitched this season.
On the hitting side, Kirsten Finarelli was incredible, firing off two home runs, three runs, and four RBI while getting on base in all four of her plate appearances. That's the most RBI she has posted since back in May of 2024. Another player making a difference was Kaitlyn Brudnicki, who went 2-for-4 with one home run, two stolen bases, and two runs.
They weren't the only ones working in the home run department: Lake-Lehman lost a few balls and finished the game with three home runs. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Western Wayne didn't launched any home runs.
Lake-Lehman pushed their record up to 18-2 with the victory, which was their fifth straight at home. Those home wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.4 runs on average over those games. As for Western Wayne, their loss dropped their record down to 8-12.
