Indian Lake barely beat Northwestern the last time the pair played, but that sure wasn't the case this time around. The Lakers put the hurt on the Warriors with a sharp 13-3 victory on Wednesday. The result was nothing new for the Lakers, who have now won six contests by seven runs or more so far this season.

Bre Wisener made a splash while hitting and pitching. She tossed six innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off six hits. Wisener was also stellar in the batter's box, going a perfect 3-for-3 with one home run, two stolen bases, and two runs.

In other batting news, Indian Lake let Annie Rapp and MacKenzie Miller run wild. Rapp went 2-for-4 with one home run, two RBI, and one double, while Miller went 2-for-4 with three runs, one stolen base, and one double. Those three runs gave Miller a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Mackenzie Dixon, who went 2-for-3 with two runs and one RBI.

Indian Lake kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 14 hits. They are 5-1 when they post 11 or more hits.

The win was the third in a row for Indian Lake, bringing their record up to 9-6. Those victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 4.0 runs on average over those games. As for Northwestern, they have been struggling recently as they've lost three of their last four matchups. That's put a noticeable dent in their 8-7 record this season.
