Everything went their way against the Warriors as they made off with  a  13-1 victory. The Trojans might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won ten contests by six  runs or more this season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:7\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.maxpreps.com\/pa\/covington-township\/north-pocono-trojans\/athletes\/amelia-bell\/?careerid=mbebq4v11pfcc\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"> Amelia Bell<\/a> made a splash while hitting and pitching. On the mound, she  struck out eight batters over  six innings while giving up just one earned run off   four  hits. Bell was also big at the plate,  going 2-for-3 with two  doubles, two  RBI,  and one  run.
