Etiwanda is preparing for their first league matchup of the season on Friday. They will venture away from home to take on the Chino Hills Huskies at 3:15 p.m. Etiwanda will be looking to extend their current eight-game winning streak.
Etiwanda barely beat Centennial the last time the pair played, but that sure wasn't the case this time around. The Eagles blew past the Huskies 13-1 on Friday. The result was nothing new for the Eagles, who have now won nine matchups by eight runs or more so far this season.
Kimberlee Aleman was a major factor no matter where she played. She looked comfortable on the mound, tossing four innings while giving up just one earned run off two hits. She has been consistent : she hasn't given up more than one earned run in six consecutive appearances. She was also big at the plate, going 2-for-4 with one home run, three RBI, and one stolen base.
