Suggested Video




The Blanchard Lions will challenge the Southmoore SaberCats at 4:00 p.m. on Thursday. The pair come into the matchup bolstered by wins in their previous matches.

On Tuesday, Blanchard beat Chickasha 8-3. The victory made it back-to-back wins for the Lions.

Parker Jackson tossed a big game, pitching five innings while giving up three earned runs off five hits.

At the plate, Peyton Hector was excellent, scoring two runs and stealing a base while going 2-for-3. The team also got some help courtesy of Lynlee Schneringer, who scored a run and stole a base while going 1-for-3.

Meanwhile, Southmoore had to travel to play their first game of the season, but the final result was worth the trip. They walked away with a 6-1 win over Westmoore on Thursday. The SaberCats' victory was nothing new given the team hasn't lost yet this season.

Blanchard skirted past Southmoore 4-3 when the teams last played back in August of 2023. The rematch might be a little tougher for Blanchard since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
