Baseball Preview: Pingree Highlanders vs. Landmark Vikings

The Pingree Highlanders will head out on the road to take on the Landmark Vikings at 4:00 p.m. on Monday. Pingree's pitching crew has only allowed 2.5 runs per game this season, so Landmark's hitters will have their work cut out for them.

Pingree is probably headed into the game with a chip on their shoulder considering Phillips Exeter Academy just ended the team's six-game winning streak on Saturday. They fell just short of the Lions by a score of 2-1. Having soared to a lofty 13 runs in the game before, Pingree couldn't push the score so high this time.

Meanwhile, Landmark came up short against Beaver Country Day on Monday and fell 10-5.

Pingree's loss dropped their record down to 12-3. As for Landmark, they have traveled a rocky road recently having lost six of their last eight matches, which put a noticeable dent in their 5-9 record this season.

Pingree skirted past Landmark 5-4 in their previous matchup back in May of 2023. The rematch might be a little tougher for Pingree since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
