El Dorado picked up another tournament win on Saturday. Everything went their way against the Covina Colts as El Dorado made off with an 11-1 victory. Considering the Golden Hawks have won seven matchups by more than five runs this season, Saturday's blowout was nothing new.
Kayla Davenport spent all six innings played on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered only one earned run on one hit and racked up ten Ks. Those ten strikeouts set a new season-high mark for her.
On the hitting side, El Dorado let Jessica Cherms and Kelsi Davenport run wild. Cherms scored two runs and stole two bases while going 2-for-2, while Davenport went a perfect 3-for-3 with two doubles and two RBI. Those two stolen bases gave Cherms a new career-high. The team also got some help courtesy of Amy Cornelius, who scored a run while going 3-for-4.
El Dorado was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .448. The team's really been improving in that area: they've now improved their batting average total in three consecutive games.
El Dorado has been performing well recently as they've won three of their last four contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 10-5 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 6.5 runs over those games. Covina's defeat was their fourth straight on the road, which dropped their record down to 5-5.
Looking ahead, El Dorado will face off against La Habra at 3:15 p.m. on Tuesday. The two teams have allowed few runs on average (El Dorado 2.9, La Habra 3.2) so any runs scored will be well earned. As for Covina, they will take on Monrovia at 3:30 a.m. on Tuesday. Monrovia has struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 12.18 runs per game on average), something Covina will no doubt try to take advantage of.
