The Lancers of Francis Parker collected eight hits en route to a 4-2 road victory at Canyon Crest Academy in high school softball action Tuesday.

Francis Parker posted all four of its runs in the second inning, as sophomore outfielder Alex Husley and junior infielder Maddie Tomey recorded two RBI each. So far in 2010, Tomey leads the squad in hitting with a .486 average (18-for-37) while collecting nine extra-base hits (six doubles, three triples).

Jackie Buechler, a 5-foot-8 freshman, threw one of her best games yet as she earned the starting nod in the circle for the Lancers. She has now gone 5-1 in her last six starts and owns an earned run average of 2.15 in 65 innings.

With the win Tuesday, Parker improves its overall record to 6-6 while boosting its league mark to 2-0. The Lancers will host Horizon next Tuesday at 3:30 p.m. The Ravens of CCA will challenge Horizon this Thursday at 4 p.m., looking to break a four-game losing streak.
