Higbie, a freshman from Midlothian, Va., added two wins to her stat line this week as she increased her league-leading victory total to 13.  Higbie, who has fired every inning of Roanoke's 16 games this season, picked both wins in a double-header against Guilford last week.  In game one, she gave up five hits and pair of unearned runs on the way to an 11-2 win.  She followed that up with a second seven-inning effort in which she scattered nine hits while surrendering just one run (earned) in a 9-1 Maroons' triumph.
