Baughman’s first double came in the top of the first inning, plating two runs as part of a five-run opening frame for Dewar. She followed that up with another two-run double in the fourth, sealing the game in favor of the Lady Dragons.
Dewar’s early lead was also fueled by Emma Bear’s two-run double and Kinsey Maldonado’s sacrifice fly, which helped establish a 5-0 cushion by the end of the first inning. Additional runs were added in the third, courtesy of walks and hit batters, pushing Dewar’s lead to 8-0 before Baughman’s final hit.
Brooke Thomas was flawless in the pitching circle, throwing four no-hit innings while striking out three and walking just one. Her dominance, combined with solid defense from the Lady Dragons, secured the shutout victory.
