Box Score 1 | Box Score 2 DENVER - Metro State stretched its winning streak to five games with wins over Regis University (9-1 in six innings) and Western New Mexico (12-0 in five innings) on Saturday at home. The Roadrunners improved to 12-4 overall this season, including 8-3 in the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference.

Saturday was Metro State's TEAL game to support the fight against Ovarian Cancer. Maul was diagnosed with Ovarian Cancer early last season, but returned to the field cancer-free this season.

Mary Towner (Arvada, Colo./Ralston Valley H.S.) was 4-for-6 with six runs batted in on the day, including a three-run home run in the second inning against WNMU. Kelsey Tillery (Windsor, Colo./Windsor H.S.) was 4-for-7 with four RBIs and two runs scored.

The Roadrunners had two strong pitching performances as Aubree Maul (Fort Collins, Colo./Rocky Mountain H.S.) scattered six hits with no walks in Game One, striking out three. Cassidy Smith (Loveland, Colo./Loveland H.S.) allowed just three hits in five innings and also did not walk a batter.

Metro State trailed 1-0 after the top of the fourth against Regis, but pushed across seven runs in the bottom of the inning for its biggest inning so far this season. MSU Denver did so despite just two balls leaving the infield as Tillery and Maul delivered doubles late in the inning.

Towner ended the game on a double in the sixth.

Against the Mustangs in the second game, Metro State scored five in the first and five more in the second. Towner hit a two-run double in the first and a three-run homer in the second.

Dani Sandel (Omaha, Neb./Westside H.S.) went 3-for-3 against Western New Mexico.

The three teams are scheduled to play another three-way pod on Sunday at 11 a.m.
