WOODLAND HILLS, CA - The first place Raiders, playing for a WSC North title, hit the road to take on Pierce. Having already clinched a tie for a WSC title, a win would mean the Raiders would be outright champions having a 2 game lead over second place Cuesta with one to play, ironically against Cuesta. The Raiders knew the assignment and left no doubt defeating Pierce, 8-0 in 5 inns.
The Raiders got the scoring started in the top of the 1st when Danielle Bishop singled, stole second and scored on Mallory Akhlaghi's single. The Raiders added two more in the 2nd when Bishop singled scoring Aslyn Olson and Maddy Mekari. 3-0 Raiders going to the 3rd. The Raiders kept it going with Leah Cowans RBI double scored Akhlaghi. Cowans scored on Isabella Velasquez's SAC fly. Kylie Kolkowski RBI single scored Mekari after she was walked. 6-0 Raiders after 3.
The Raiders added 2 more runs, one each in the 4th and 5th to get the 8-0 mercy rule win. Pitcher Amanda Smith struck out 7 and allowed 3 hits to get her 25th win on the year.
The Raiders will host Cuesta next Tuesday, 4/23 at 2:30. It'll be Sophomore Day and we will be honoring our outgoing sophomores before the game.
