Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Southwestern). They were the clear victors by a 13-5 margin over the Jamestown Red & Green on Thursday. The high-flying hitting performance was a huge turnaround for the Trojans considering their one-run performance the match before.
Madi Burnett spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered only one earned (and three unearned) runs on two hits and racked up 13 Ks.
On the hitting side, Kate Casel and Addison Shaw did most of the damage at the plate: Casel went 4-for-5 with two stolen bases, three runs, and two RBI, while Shaw went 4-for-5 with three RBI, two runs, and one stolen base. Those four hits gave Shaw a new career-high. Alexis Beckerink was another key player, going 4-for-5 with two runs and one RBI.
Southwestern always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .537. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.
With the win, Southwestern broke their three-game losing streak and moved their record to 4-9. As for Jamestown, they are on a five-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 2-5.
Both squads are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. Southwestern will square off against Fredonia at 5:00 p.m. on Friday. The Hillbillies will roll in looking for their ninth straight victory, something the Trojans surely won't give up without a fight. As for Jamestown, they will face off against Olean at 5:00 p.m. on Friday. The Red & Green's pitchers better be ready for this one: the Huskies have averaged an impressive 7.8 runs per game this season.
