Logansport put another one in the bag on Saturday to keep their perfect season alive. They came out on top against the Lowell Red Devils by a score of 5-2. For the Berries, this counts as revenge for the 5-1 win the Red Devils walked away with the last time they faced one another back in April of 2022.

Gracie Risley and Natalee Packard made a big impact while hitting and pitching. Throwing, Risley pitched two innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. Meanwhile, Packard tossed five innings while giving up just two earned runs off five hits. Risley has been consistent recently: she hasn't given up more than one hit in four consecutive appearances. At bat, Risley got on base in all three of her plate appearances with one home run, one stolen base, and two RBI, while Packard went a perfect 1-for-1 with one run, one double, and one RBI.

In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Kellyn Cripe, who went 2-for-3 with two runs, one triple, and one double. Maddy Baumgardner also deserves some recognition as she hit her first double of the season.

Logansport pushed their record up to 7-0 with the victory, which was their ninth straight at home dating back to last season. Those home wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 9.8 runs over those games. As for Lowell, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 2-4.

Coincidentally, Logansport and Lowell will both be playing Fishers the next time they take the field. The Red Devils will host the Tigers at 1:30 p.m. on Saturday, while the Berries will play them later in the day, at 3:30 p.m.
