CALDWELL, Idaho – Katie Machado and Cayla Williams threw back-to-back five-inning shutouts as No. 6 Southern Oregon rolled to two Cascade Conference wins against Providence (Mont.) on Saturday, 9-0 and 11-0 at Symms Field.

Williams went to 5-0 with a four-hitter in Game 2 and helped her case at the plate by going 2-for-2 with a three-run double and five RBIs.
