Taliyha Milton made a splash no matter where she played. She didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only one hit over five innings pitched. She has been nothing but reliable on the mound: she hasn't given up more than two walks in three consecutive appearances. She was also big at the plate, going 1-for-2 with three RBI.

In other batting news, Lenape let Becca Taylor and Ollie KLoy run wild. Taylor went 3-for-4 with one home run, three runs, and three RBI, while KLoy scored two runs and stole two bases while getting on base in all four of her plate appearances. KLoy is crushing it when it comes to stolen bases: she's snagged at least one every time she's taken the field this season. Mia Marino was another key player, scoring two runs and stealing a base while going 1-for-2.

Lenape always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .545. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.

The victory made it two in a row for Lenape and bumps their season record up to 2-2. Those wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered a grand total of 8 runs in those games. As for Shawnee, their loss dropped their record down to 0-2.
