Allendale barely beat Hopkins the last time the pair played, but that sure wasn't the case this time around. The Falcons put the hurt on the Vikings with a sharp 11-3 win on Saturday. The result was nothing new for the Falcons, who have now won six matches by eight runs or more so far this season.
Bailey Scholma made a splash while hitting and pitching. On the mound, she tossed seven innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off six hits. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than two walks in seven consecutive appearances. She was also big at the plate, going 1-for-3 with one stolen base, two RBI, and one run. That stolen base marked the first that she has snagged this season.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Alexis Muir, who got on base in all five of her plate appearances with four RBI and one run. What's more, she posted three hits, the most she's had since back in March. The team also got some help courtesy of Kenedie Curtis, who went 3-for-4 with two runs and one double.
Allendale was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .485. That was just more of the same: they've now posted a batting average of .464 or higher in three consecutive contests.
Allendale's victory ended a six-game drought at home dating back to last season and bumped them up to 7-4. As for Hopkins, they dropped their record down to 6-8-1 with the defeat, which was their fifth straight on the road.
