Wesley guided the Rockets to a pair of victories over Lake Cormorant as she surrendered just one hit and struck out 33 of 38 batters she faced as opponents hit just .027 against her. The sophomore hurler tossed a pair of six-inning shutouts, including a no-hitter in the second matchup. In that contest, she was a walk away from a perfect game, striking out 16 in the 9-0 victory. Two days earlier, she surrendered one hit and matched a season-high with 17 strikeouts in a 10-0 win against the Gators.
