Philomath and Stayton are an even 5-5 against one another since May of 2018, but likely not for long. The Warriors are taking a road trip to challenge the Eagles at 3:30 p.m. on Wednesday. Philomath is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 8.5 runs per game this season.
Stayton will square off against a team with plenty of momentum: Philomath extended their winning streak to three on Monday. The Warriors walked away with a 9-5 victory over Sweet Home.
Libby Kramer was a standout: she went 2-for-3 with three RBI, one triple, and one stolen base. That triple marked the first that she hit this season. The team also got some help courtesy of Jenae Traglia, who scored two runs and stole three bases while going 2-for-3.
Kramer wasn't the only one making solid contact: Philomath kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 12 hits. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now got at least eight hits in six consecutive games.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Stayton). Their pitchers stepped up to hand Newport an 18-0 shutout on Monday. The team's explosion at the plate also rewarded the Eagles with their most commanding win of the season.
Philomath pushed their record up to 5-3 with the win, which was their third straight at home.
