Cyprus had to kick off their season on the road on Wednesday, but they showed no ill effects. Their pitcher stepped up to hand the Layton Lancers a 9-0 shutout. The Pirates haven't had any issues with the Lancers recently, as the game was their third consecutive victory against them.
The result came thanks to Breelyn ( Bree ) Garcia's shutout, as she gave up just a hit and racked up eight Ks.
On the hitting side, Cyprus' win was truly a team effort as five different players contributed at least one hit. One of them was Abagail ( Abbie ) Hurtado, who went 2-for-3 with four RBI, one stolen base, and one run. Another was Emalee Valencia, who scored a run while going 1-for-3.
Looking ahead, Cyprus will square off against Green Canyon at 12:00 p.m. on Friday. Layton will have a little extra prep time after the defeat as they won't be playing again for a while. They'll take on Lehi at 3:30 p.m. on March 26th.
