West Las Vegas entered their tilt with Robertson on Saturday with four consecutive wins, and they'll enter their next game with five. They put the hurt on the Cardinals with a sharp 14-6 victory. The result was nothing new for the Dons, who have now won seven contests by eight runs or more so far this season.

The team relied heavily on Estevan Collins, who scored three runs and stole a base while getting on base in four of his seven plate appearances. That's the most runs he has posted since back in April of 2024. Another player making a difference was Cruz Gallegos, who scored a run while getting on base in four of his six plate appearances.

West Las Vegas kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 11 hits. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now got at least 11 hits in four consecutive games.

West Las Vegas pushed their record up to 8-1 with the win, which was their ninth straight at home dating back to last season. Those victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they've averaged 11.2 runs this season. As for Robertson, their defeat ended a three-game streak of away wins and brought them to 7-3-1.

Both squads will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. West Las Vegas will venture away from home to challenge Sandia Prep at 3:50 p.m. on Thursday. As for Robertson, a feisty cat fight will be fought as Robertson Cardinals challenge Taos Tigers at 3:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Taos has struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 6.91 runs per game on average), something Robertson will no doubt try to take advantage of.
