Chattanooga Christian barely beat Girls Prep the last time the pair played, but that sure wasn't the case this time around. The Chargers were the clear victors by a 9-2 margin over the Bruisers on Wednesday. The Chargers might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won seven matches by seven runs or more this season.

Kylie Black spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered two runs (both of which were unearned) on six hits and racked up seven Ks. She has been consistent : she hasn't tossed less than six strikeouts in six consecutive appearances.

At the plate, Millie Fox and Nyla Halfacre did most of the damage at the plate: Fox scored three runs while going 4-for-4, while Halfacre went 2-for-3 with one home run and five RBI. Those five RBI gave Halfacre a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Hannah Smith, who scored three runs while going 2-for-3.

They weren't the only one making solid contact: Chattanooga Christian kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 13 hits. They are 12-1 when they post 11 or more hits.

Chattanooga Christian is on a roll lately: they've won seven of their last eight games. That's provided a nice bump to their 14-4 record this season. As for Girls Prep, their loss ended a seven-game streak of away wins and brought them to 15-5.

Coming up, Girls Prep will venture away from home to take on Baylor at 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Chattanooga Christian will be paying especially close attention to the Bruisers' contest: after the Bruisers faces off against Hixson, they'll take on Chattanooga Christian again at 5:00 p.m. on the 22nd.
