six.
Wilhite also led the team in hits in game one with three singles to go along with three RBIs. Aricah McCall and Maggie Johnson had a single and a double and an RBI and Kirsten Roush had two singles and four RBIs.
Winter Snyder had two hits, three RBIs and two steals and Morgan Mauk had a hit and two steals.
Cherryvale kept it close in game two, keeping the Lady Cubs off the board until they scored two runs in the bottom of the third. Humboldt scored two more in the bottom of the fifth and another in the sixth.
Wilhite was excellent once again, allowing just three hits while striking out 11.
Mauk had two hits, two RBIs and three stolen bases in game two and freshman Isabelle Murrow hit a solo home run over the left field fence as one of her two RBIs.
The Lady Cubs will travel to Lebo on Friday.
