Two teams were on the hunt for playoff glory, but only West walked away with it. They were the clear victors by an 11-2 margin over the Maypearl Panthers on Saturday. Considering the Trojans have won ten games by more than eight runs this season, Saturday's blowout was nothing new.
Laynie Davis spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered two runs (both of which were unearned) on four hits. She has been consistent: she hasn't given up more than one earned run in seven consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Mabri Warren, who got on base in four of her five plate appearances with one home run and two RBI. Another player making a difference was Kyla Shoppach, who went 2-for-4 with three runs and one triple.
They weren't the only ones working in the home run department: West lost a few balls and finished the game with two home runs. That's the most home runs they've posted since back in April of 2024.
West pushed their record up to 14-16-1 with the victory, which was their third straight on the road. Those road wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.0 run on average over those games. As for Maypearl, they now have a losing record of 14-15-2.
West will have a chance to go back-to-back against the Panthers: the pair will be back at it again later today.
