The Lady Braves (4-1-1; 2-0 SSL) opened up South Sequoia League play this past week with a 9-3 win over Taft and a 12-1 victory over Bakersfield Christian.
Shayla Garland threw both games and picked up the wins, pitching 12 innings total and giving up only eight hits with 10 K's and only three walks.
Offensively for the ladies, Lacey Perez had four hits with three runs scored, McKenzie Eberle picked up four hits, including three doubles and scored four times, and Garland helped her own cause by logging four hits and scoring twice.
Other highlights included Laura Shoemaker tallying three hits and three RBIs, Stephanie Medina with three hits, six RBIs and a home run at Taft that cleared the fence.
"In all my years of coaching at the JV level, that is the first ball I've ever seen clear the fence at Taft,” said head coach Mike Heckathorn. “It was a pretty impressive shot.”
The Lady Braves continue SSL play, hosting Arvin on Tuesday and traveling to Shafter on Thursday.
