Tessa Jones would pitch the entire game in this ranked battle, pitching all seven innings, allowing eight hits, three runs, and three strikeouts. Sophia Bauman and Addie Abens would lead the Mustangs in hits and RBIs, as both girls would end the night 3-2 from the batters box. Abens would hit a solo homerun in the top of the first, as Bauman would hit a two run homerun in the top of the seventh, as a homerun would start and end the game for DCG as they defeated the Wolves 8-3.

Now 21-9, the Mustangs travel to Carlisle for their final match of the regular season on Wednesday, facing off against the 26-9 Wildcats. First pitch is scheduled for 7pm.
