Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Cherokee Trail). They blew past the Grandview Wolves 16-1 on Saturday. The result was nothing new for the Cougars, who have now won 13 contests by seven runs or more so far this season.
Kate Kenney and Tayah Burton did most of the damage at the plate: Kenney went 1-for-2 with three runs, two RBI, and one double, while Burton went 1-for-3 with two stolen bases and three runs. That's the most runs Burton has posted since back in October of 2024. The team also got some help courtesy of Lily Buttshaw, who went 2-for-3 with two runs and one RBI.
Cherokee Trail always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .556. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Grandview only posted an OBP of .308.
Cherokee Trail is on a roll lately: they've won 12 of their last 13 matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 16-4 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 11.7 runs over those games. As for Grandview, their defeat dropped their record down to 13-9.
