Addi Andrews spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered seven earned (and three unearned) runs on six hits and racked up 13 Ks. The dominant performance gave her a new career-high in strikeouts.
At the plate, the team relied heavily on LeNayah Jackson, who went 3-for-5 with two triples, five RBI, and two runs. Those two triples gave her a new career-high. Cameron Cubas was another key player, scoring three runs and stealing a base while going 4-for-5.
Richlands was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .455. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Pamlico County only posted a batting average of .259.
Meanwhile, Washington narrowly escaped with a win as the squad sidled past Croatan 2-1.
Emma Orr was a major factor while hitting and pitching. She didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only a hit while striking out 14 over seven innings pitched. Orr was also big at the plate, scoring a run while going 3-for-3.
Orr wasn't the only one making solid contact as three players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Alani Hyatt, who scored a run while going 1-for-3.
Richlands came out on top in a nail-biter against Washington when the teams last played back in March of 2024, sneaking past 2-0. The rematch might be a little tougher for Richlands since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
