Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Preble Shawnee). They came out on top against the National Trail Blazers by a score of 8-3 on Tuesday. For the Arrows, this counts as revenge for the 13-10 win the Blazers walked away with the last time they faced one another back in April of 2023.
Mattie Colburn was a major factor no matter where she played. She looked comfortable on the mound, striking out ten batters over seven innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off seven hits.
