Coming off a 4-1 victory over the Ventura Pirates last week the Lady Monarchs continue their winning streak as the team's overall record has improved to 13-3-1.
"We have great power and resilience," said third-year Head Coach Frankie Garcia. "This team has the ability to come back from anything and our strong attacking attitude has helped us tremendously this season."
Even with only five returning sophomores, the Lady Monarchs have been very successful throughout the season.
"A large part of our [current] success has to do with pitching and hitting," said Garcia. "We have some powerful bats on this team."
The sophomores are doing well and the freshmen on the team have yet to disappoint, contributing to the game and working hard, according to Garcia.
Playing with just three losses, the Lady Monarchs look to make a bold statement this season, while developing a strong team spirit, which will add to their success.
"If we can continue to play the way we've been playing and stick to our goal of playing every game better than the last, we have a shot at making it to the State championships," said Garcia, whose team narrowly missed the playoffs last season.
Building off the great amount of talent available this season is making a big difference, explained sophomore catcher Lorena Arreguin.
"This team is amazing, because everyone is so reliable and helpful to one another," said freshman pitcher Pauline Morquecho who pitched a complete game in Tuesday's victory.
"Coach Garcia has really helped us out," explained Morquecho.
"We get together really well," said sophomore outfielder Amanda Salazar. "Sometimes conflict from outside can spill onto the playing field, but it seems like nothing can break us."
