Mackenzie McIntyre spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered three earned runs on six hits and racked up seven Ks. Those seven strikeouts set a new season-high mark for her.
At the plate, the team relied heavily on Kinley Llewellyn, who went 2-for-3 with one home run, two runs, and two RBI. Those RBI were her first of the season. Kaitlynn King was another key player, scoring a run and stealing a base while going 2-for-3.
Meanwhile, after soaring to 29 runs the game before, Sherando was a bit more limited in their match on Wednesday. They fell just short of Fauquier by a score of 1-0. The contest marked the first time this year in which the Warriors were not able to get on the board.
Sherando also let their pitcher toss all seven innings and she was also dialed-in: Lilian Wray gave up only one earned run on four hits and racked up 12 Ks. Wray has been consistent : she hasn't given up more than two walks in six consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, Sherando saw two different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Madalyn Cox, who went 2-for-3 with one double.
Sherando moved to 5-4 with that defeat, which also ended their five-game winning streak. As for Skyline, their win bumped their record up to 3-5.
Skyline skirted past Sherando 10-8 in their previous meeting two weeks ago. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Hawks since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
