Ottumwa -- A steady rain couldn't keep the Indian Hills softball team from extending its winning streak on Thursday, although the rain did wipe out the second game of a scheduled doubleheader at R.L. Hellyer Field.
Indian Hills drubbed Illinois Central, 11-3, before the wet conditions forced the second game to be cancelled. The victory runs IHCC's win streak to 10 and gives them 25 wins for the season.
The first of three hits for Tory Beaver, a double, led to the first Warrior run in the 2nd. Beaver then singled home the second run in the 3rd.
Illinois Central used a solo home run by Sara Rogers to tie the game in the 3rd, before the Warriors took control with five runs in the 4th and four more in the 5th.
Kylee Homewood's two-run double and Jordan Grell's three-run homer provided the runs in the 4th. Grell walked with the bases loaded in the 5th, another run scored on an error, and RBI-singles by Nicole Steinle and Beaver ended the contest early with the run-rule.
Kylee Coughlin went the distance in the circle for IHCC. She allowed five hits and struck out two.
It was the fourth game in a row in which the Warriors scored at least nine runs.
Next up for Indian Hills is a pair of weekend doubleheaders with Iowa Central, in Fort Dodge on Saturday and at home on Sunday.
