Talk about having a day.

Sophomore ace Kiana Adams tossed a perfect game, launched a home run, doubled and drove in three runs as Auburn thumped visiting Kentridge 13-0 in a North Puget Sound League cross-divisional softball game Tuesday.

Adams struck out 11 in a 59-pitch gem over five innings of work for the young Trojans (4-0). It was her second career perfect game, the first being as the ace at Cascade Middle School.

Lynneti Aumua and Emma Oehler, who tripled, each drove in a pair of runs for Auburn. Charity Sevaaetasi blasted a pair of doubles and drove in a run. Hailey Browne doubled in a run. Jillian Tinsley, Carly Ross and Callie Arnott each had an RBI.

The Trojans open Olympic Division play Friday, hosting another 4-0 team, Federal Way. First pitch is 4 p.m.
