Back at Casper Park, the Lady Macks (12-2, 9-2 Western Cloverbelt Conference) came out of the gate strong against the Orioles (7-8, 3-6 WCC), tallying three runs in the bottom of the first and forcing a pitching change by the second inning.
McDonell's hot bats and aggressiveness on the bases continued to pay dividends, as they held the visitors at arm's length throughout the contest, while senior pitcher Katie Ruf and freshman shortstop/pitcher Kelsey Bremness combined for a shutout, with Ruf allowing just one hit while striking out a half dozen Stanley-Boyd batters.
Senior first baseman Aubrey Dorn was 3-4 on the night with 3 RBIs, and finished a triple shy of hitting for the cycle, while junior left fielder Kendall Hepfler also tallied three hits and scored four runs.
