Softball Game Preview: Village Tech Viper Squid vs. Life Oak Cliff Lions

Village Tech is preparing for their first district matchup of the season on Friday. They will look to take advantage of their home field for the first time this season as they take on the Life Oak Cliff Lions at 5:30 p.m. Considering both teams were shutout in their prior games, the pair is probably coming into this one with something to prove.

Village Tech is coming home looking for redemption after taking a loss in their road opener. They lost 15-0 to UME Preparatory Academy back in February. Sadly, the defeat continues a streak the team started last season, making it seven in a row.

Meanwhile, Tuesday just wasn't the day for Life Oak Cliff's offense. They might be feeling deja-vu: they lost 16-0 to UME Preparatory Academy, which was the same score (and result) they got the week prior. The Lions just can't catch a break and have now endured three losses in a row.

Village Tech suffered a grim 21-4 defeat to Life Oak Cliff when the teams last played back in April of 2024. Can Village Tech avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
