Undaunted by their lengthy bus ride, the Flashes kicked off the game with an incredible offensive drive. In the top of the first inning Fillmore’s batters strung together an impressive series of hits, ultimately batting through the line-up and establishing an 8-0 lead. With strong defensive play and a continuance of their stellar hitting, the Flashes were able to hold on to the momentum and finish the game in only five innings. The contest ended with a final score of 12-0 in favor of Fillmore. Highlights of the game were as follows: Kasey Crawford went 2 for 4 with a single, a triple, and 3 RBIs; Cali Wyand went 2 for 4 with a single, a double, and 4 RBIs; Pitcher Sydnee Isom went 2 for 4 with a single, a double, and 4 RBI’s; Leah Meza went 1 for 4 with a homerun and 3 RBIs; Maiah Lopez went 2 for 4 with two singles.
