It's playoff time, and Northwestern had no trouble coming through when it counted. They never let the Arcanum Trojans get on the board and left with a 7-0 victory on Monday. Considering the Warriors have won ten contests by more than five runs this season, Monday's blowout was nothing new.
Sophia Pamer made a splash while hitting and pitching. She looked comfortable on the mound, not allowing a single earned run over seven innings pitched. She has been consistent recently: she hasn't given up more than one walk in four consecutive appearances. She was also solid in the batter's box, going 2-for-4 with two RBI.
In other batting news, Northwestern let Julia Shaw and Claire Stott run wild. Shaw went 2-for-3 with two runs, while Stott went 1-for-2 with one home run. The team also got some help courtesy of Samantha Wolfe, who went 3-for-4 with one RBI.
Northwestern was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .407. That was just more of the same: they've now posted a batting average of .300 or higher in four consecutive matchups.
Northwestern has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won eight of their last nine games. That's provided a nice bump to their 17-9 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.1 runs on average over those games. As for Arcanum, their loss ended a nine-game streak of wins at home and dropped them to 20-8.
Looking ahead, Northwestern will face off against Reading at 5:00 p.m. on Thursday. The Warriors' pitchers better be ready for this one: the Blue Devils have averaged an impressive 9.7 runs per game this season. Arcanum does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
