Brianna Lupa has pitched 60% of the season for the Blue Angels, carrying a most impressive era of 2.97.  Keys for the Blue Angels putting together a win streak seem to be consistent hitting with runners in scoring position, and shoring up the defense to limit the big innings that have plagued Mount Mary in their recent games.
