While Tuesday's win was certainly a team effort, someone pulling more than their own weight was underclassman Alyna Rooks. She turned in nothing short of a gem on Tuesday: she struck out ten batters over four innings while giving up just two earned (and one unearned) runs off six hits.
Rooks' strong effort led Pender over Lejeune and she'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 6:00 p.m. on Friday. Pender is 8-1 against Lejeune going back to April of 2018, a lead they'll look to extend.
