Monticello wasted no time taking control and never let up, erupting offensively in a 15-1 rout of St. Thomas More.
The Sages set the tone early in the first inning as Sadie Walsh and Madison Highland each drove in runs to give Monticello a quick 2-0 lead. St. Thomas More answered with a solo home run from Schweighart, but that would be the only spark for the Sabers all game.
From there, it was all Monticello.
The Sages broke things open in the third inning with a massive rally fueled by extra-base hits. Madison Highland, Ali Weidner, and Reese Stiger all delivered doubles, while Isabella Beery added an RBI single as Monticello piled on runs and stretched the lead out of reach.
They didn’t slow down in the fourth or fifth innings. Beery and Weidner continued to produce at the plate, while Sadie Walsh and Cassidee Stoffel added more RBIs in a relentless offensive attack. In the fifth, Weidner capped off her standout day with a two-run double, pushing the total to 15 runs and sealing the blowout.
Monticello’s lineup consistently found barrels, racking up hits all over the field and taking advantage of opportunities, while their defense held St. Thomas More in check after the opening inning.
