Circle had to travel to play their first game of the season, but the final result was worth the trip. Their pitcher stepped up to hand the Chaparral Roadrunners a 22-0 shutout on Tuesday. That's more bragging rights for Circle, who also won the pair's last head-to-head.
Whitney Wilbur was a major factor while hitting and pitching. She looked comfortable on the mound, striking out six batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit (and not a single walk). Wilbur was also big at the plate, scoring three runs while going 2-for-3.
In other batting news, Circle got a massive performance out of Lauren Swilley, who scored two runs and stole a base while going 3-for-4. Brynne Bowman was another key contributor, scoring two runs while getting on base in all four of her plate appearances.
Circle will have a chance to go back-to-back against Chaparral: the pair will be back at it again later today.
