Providence blew Polytechnic out of the water the last time the pair played, but on Thursday Polytechnic got their revenge. The Pioneers fell just short of the Panthers by a score of 7-5. The Pioneers' defeat signaled the end of their five-game winning streak.
Madelynn Watts spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered four earned (and three unearned) runs on nine hits and racked up ten Ks. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than two walks in four consecutive appearances.
At the plate, Evangelina Aleman stepped up to lead a balanced group of hitters: she went 1-for-3 with one home run, two runs, and two RBI. Mia Allinson was another key player, going 3-for-4 with one triple, one stolen base, and one run.
Meanwhile, Chadwick was not able to break out of their rough patch on Thursday as the team picked up their third straight loss. They were two runs away from ending the streak, but they lost a 4-2 heartbreaker at the hands of Mayfield.

Providence's defeat dropped their record down to 7-4. As for Chadwick, their loss dropped their record down to 3-9.
Chadwick's pitching crew has a crucial task ahead of them: Providence has hit smart this season, having averaged an OBP of .504. It's a different story for Chadwick, though, as they've only averaged .345. Will they be able to contain Providence's hitters?
Everything went Providence's way against Chadwick when the teams last played last Friday, as Providence made off with a 23-3 victory. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Pioneers since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
