Aissa Silva had an amazing pitching run over the last two days.
On Thursday, she pitched a 1-0 shutout against the powerful Lady Dukes – Lamar team and then came back Friday morning to go 10 innings in another 1-0 win, this one against a strong Caroline Elite team led by Tennessee-bound pitcher Karlyn Pickens, who herself was tremendous with 17 K’s and only four hits allowed.
Aissa, however, gave up only three hits and in ITB was tremendous, nailing a runner at third on one come-backer to the circle and also had runners on first and third with one out before striking out the side.
It was also a great week for the incoming senior as she committed to “my dream school,” the Univ. of Arizona!
In this video shot Friday morning after the team lost a tough contest to Lady Dukes (in which Aissa didn’t pitch), we interviewed her to ask about what has been a fun week for her on and off the field… click below to see what she had to say!
