Peak to Peak had lost three straight at home, but on Monday they dropped down to 5-10 to make it four. They lost 18-2 to the Centaurus Warriors. Unfortunately, that's the second time they've come up short against the Warriors this season, as they also lost their prior matchup 7-1 back in August.
Peak to Peak saw five different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Grace Trasky, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with one double and one RBI.
As for Centaurus, the win (which was their third in a row) raised their record to 10-1. They might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won nine matches by six runs or more this season.
On Centaurus' side, Nora Midness made a big impact no matter where she played. On the mound, she struck out seven batters over four innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off four hits (and not a single walk). Midness has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than two walks in six consecutive appearances. She was also big at the plate, going 3-for-4 with two runs, two doubles, and two RBI. That's the most doubles she has posted since back in September of 2024.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Morgan Sizemore, who went 2-for-3 with three runs, three RBI, and one triple. Kylie Lavender also deserves some recognition as she hit her first double of the season.
Both squads will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. Peak to Peak will challenge Jefferson Academy at 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday. The Jaguars have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 12.3 runs per game on average), something the Pumas will no doubt try to take advantage of. As for Centaurus, they will square off against Arvada at 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday. The two teams have allowed few runs on average (the Warriors 1.8, the Bulldogs 2.1) so any runs scored will be well earned.
