San Marin’s four-game win streak grows with a road victory in Windsor
The Mustangs got a huge two-inning relief effort from Taylor Testa. She held Windsor to just one hit, while San Marin’s offense got going early and kept the pressure on.
Testa did damage at the plate, too. She finished 3-for-5, drove in four runs, and crossed home twice herself.
She’s been steady lately, never walking more than one batter in her last four outings. Marin County coaches really appreciate that kind of command, especially when the game’s tight and Windsor’s lineup is lurking.
Alina Rempe kept things rolling, going a perfect 3-for-3. She scored twice, drove in a run, and ripped a key double that showed just how fast San Marin can string together runs.
Tessa Christian was red-hot as well. She went 4-for-5, picked up two RBIs, and scored once, helping to pad the lead and keep Windsor playing catch-up all night.
If you were watching from Mill Valley or Tiburon, you saw the Mustangs’ blueprint in action: timely hits, gutsy base running, and a bullpen that didn’t flinch.
San Marin’s defense limited Windsor’s chances, and the Mustangs only struck out once all game. That’s not something you see every day, especially in a 12-7 win.
Capitalizing on Windsor’s mistakes and running the bases aggressively, San Marin pushed the score higher during some tense innings out in Sonoma County. With this win, the Mustangs improve to 8-3 on the season. Not bad at all for a program that’s become a fixture in Marin County prep sports, with fans tuning in from Novato’s downtown to the neighborhoods up in San Rafael.
- Top performers: Taylor Testa (3-for-5, 4 RBIs, 2 runs, pitching two scoreless innings)
- Offensive outbursts: Alina Rempe (3-for-3, two runs, RBI, double)
- Power at the plate: Tessa Christian (4-for-5, 2 RBIs, 1 run)
- Team note: San Marin is 6-0 this season when recording two or more strikeouts, a quirky stat that fans in Larkspur and Corte Madera might point to as proof of sharp at-bats and patient approaches at the plate
Looking ahead: Marin Catholic visit and a key early conference test for Windsor
San Marin gets a big home game against Marin Catholic on April 13 at 6:30 p.m. This one’s not just another date on the calendar—Marin Catholic’s pitching staff has only allowed two runs per game all season.
Bay Area coaches are definitely watching this matchup in Kentfield. Folks from San Anselmo and Fairfax who plan to attend will get a real sense of how San Marin stacks up against a top-tier opponent right in their own backyard.
There’s always a little extra tension when Marin County schools take on the Catholic Knights from Kentfield. That county rivalry just never gets old.
Windsor’s got a different kind of test coming up. They’ll head to Analy High in Sebastopol on Tuesday at 4:30 p.m.
This early conference game could shape the Wildcats’ path in the standings as the season picks up steam. Marin County teams like San Marin, Novato, and Redwood High have set the tone this year, both in how they play and how they carry themselves.
Windsor’s trip north gives them a shot to see how they measure up against a squad from just outside the county. It’s not a long drive for families from Sausalito or Mill Valley, so you might see some familiar faces in the stands.
Fans in Sausalito, San Rafael, and Point Reyes Station are tuning in or filling seats at Bolero Park in Novato. The Mustangs are starting to look like a team folks around here will want to keep an eye on as we slide into late spring and early summer.
