Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Southampton). Everything went their way against the John Marshall Justices on Monday as they made off with a 23-0 victory. The high-flying hitting performance was a huge turnaround for the Indians considering their two-run performance the contest before.
Kayla Brooks was a standout: she got on base in all four of her plate appearances with three runs and one stolen base. That stolen base marked the first that she has snagged this season. The team also got some help courtesy of Kaylee Hill, who got on base in three of her four plate appearances with three RBI, one triple, and one run.
