The Raiders extended their winning streak to seven with 2-1 and 7-2 twin-bill victories over the Mountaineers. The third-year mentor reached the milestone with the Game 1 victory in his 134th contest as coach. Senior pitcher Julianne Cree (9-6) won her team-best ninth game of the year and tossed a four-hitter to lead Southern Oregon (22-13, 10-6 CC) in the opener. SOU went 3-for-15 with runners in scoring position and stranded a season-high 12, but run-scoring plays by Kim Kraxberger and Allesha Spradling in the first and second innings, respectively, eventually spoiled a solid outing by EOU (10-25, 5-11 CC) sophomore hurler Kelly West (5-15). In Game 2, the Raiders had four runs on five hits in the first two innings. Advertisement Freshman outfielder Deni Rowley and Megan Rock each extended hit streaks to seven games and combined for five hits, four runs and four RBIs to spearhead the attack. Rowley upped her league-leading season average to .455 with a 4-for-8 twin-bill performance. SOU freshman pitcher Cat Cousins (7-5) earned the win by allowing one run on five hits over four innings.
