It's playoff time, and Pace had no trouble coming through when it counted. They were the clear victors by a 9-0 margin over the Nease Panthers on Wednesday. The Patriots might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won 14 games by six runs or more this season.
Nease's batters probably weren't too happy with Hannah DeMarcus, who pitched a no hitter and racked up 14 Ks (she gave up three walks). DeMarcus has been consistent: she hasn't tossed less than seven strikeouts in five consecutive appearances. Zoe Freeman relieved her and did a solid job, pitching one inning while giving up no earned runs or hits.
At the plate, the team relied heavily on Gracie Ueberroth, who went 2-for-3 with one home run, three RBI, and two runs. Another player making a difference was Kennedy Franz, who went 1-for-3 with three RBI, one triple, and one run.
Pace pushed their record up to 23-4 with the win, which was their sixth straight at home. Those home victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 7.3 runs over those games. As for Nease, their loss ended a five-game streak of away wins and brought them to 11-13.
