Fairfield waltzed into their contest on Tuesday with seven straight wins... but they left with eight. They never let the Mexia Black Cats get on the board and left with a 15-0 win. Give the Eagles' pitching crew some credit: that's the team's third straight shutout.
Haylee Allen was a major factor no matter where she played. On the mound, she struck out six batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs off two hits (and not a single walk). She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts any time she's pitched this season. She was also big at the plate, scoring a run and stealing two bases while getting on base in three of her four plate appearances.
In other batting news, Fairfield got a massive performance out of Evelyn Fultz, who scored two runs and stole three bases while going 1-for-3. What's more, Fultz posted three RBI, the most she's had since back in March of 2024. Madelyn Morrison was another key player, scoring two runs and stealing three bases while getting on base in all three of her plate appearances.
Fairfield was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .385. That was just more of the same: they've now posted a batting average of .333 or higher in five consecutive matches.
Fairfield pushed their record up to 10-2 with the victory, which was their seventh straight at home dating back to last season. The home wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 14.3 runs over those games. As for Mexia, they are on a nine-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-9.
