At bat, Greene scored a run while going 3-for-4, while Cooper went 3-for-3 with an RBI.
They weren't the only ones making solid contact as five players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Brea Angle, who scored a run while going 1-for-5. Maya Bennett was another key contributor, scoring a run and stealing two bases while going 1-for-3.
Galena's win bumped their record up to 2-9. As for Carson, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 2-5.
