The GWA 11/12 Allstars continued their winning streak with a well-rounded 9-5 victory over Harveys Lake on Wednesday, June 18. Fueled by early offense and a dominant pitching performance from Natalie Pikas, GWA improved their postseason momentum with another complete team win.
Pikas earned the win in the circle, throwing six innings and allowing just four hits and two earned runs while striking out 11 and walking six. She faced 30 batters and threw 97 pitches and 59 for strikes—while showcasing poise and command throughout.
GWA came out aggressive, scoring in each of the first three innings. In the first, Pikas helped her own cause with an RBI single to right, followed by Emma Stevens roping a double to center, each knocking in a run. The offense rolled into the second when Sophia Jimmerson and Kayla Magallanes each delivered RBI singles, and Sophia Adams grounded out to bring home another.
The bats didn’t cool off in the third. A groundout RBI from Stevens, a single by Harper McHale, and a double off the bat of Lillian Miscavage stretched the lead to 9-2 and provided more than enough support for Pikas.
Offensively, GWA collected 10 hits on the night, with Emma Stevens (2-for-3, 2 RBI, 1 double) and Harper McHale (2-for-3, 1 RBI) leading the charge. Lillian Miscavage added a key two-run double, and Sophia Jimmerson, Kayla Magallanes, and Natalie Pikas all added base hits.
The Allstars also showed aggressiveness on the basepaths, swiping 13 total bases. Sophia Adams led the way with three steals, followed by multiple stolen bases from Melanie Redmond, Sophia Jimmerson, Natalie Pikas, and Emma C.
On the other side, Harveys Lake got strong contributions from leadoff hitter Jessica S, who went 2-for-3. Emma W added a 1-for-3 day with 2 RBI. The team also drew six walks but struggled to string together hits against Pikas. Molly C stole two bases, and Juliana P led the defense with four chances in the field.
Harveys Lake’s Morgan J went the distance, allowing 10 runs (all earned) on 10 hits, walking eight and striking out six over 122 pitches in five innings of work. Despite the high pitch count, the team held steady defensively, committing no errors.
GWA moves on to face Northwest Allstars on Friday in their next matchup, looking to keep their hot streak alive.
