The matchup between Borah and Kuna on Saturday hardly resembled the 2-0 effort from their previous meeting. The Borah Lions lost 22-11 to the Kuna Kavemen. Even though they lost, the Lions' still made a splash at the plate and bumped their average scoring up to 7 runs per game (they're now ranked -1th in scoring overall).

Kayla Campbell made the most of her time at bat despite the final result and fired off two home runs, three runs, and three RBI while going 3-for-4. That's the most hits she has posted since back in March of 2024. Genevieve Rainville also deserves some recognition as she hit her first double of the season.

Campbell wasn't the only one working in the home run department: Borah lost a few balls and finished the game with two home runs. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now launched at least two home runs every time they've taken the field this season.

Borah's record is now 0-4. As for Kuna, the win snapped their losing streak at six games dating back to last season and leaves them with a 1-3 record.

Looking ahead, Borah will square off against Fruitland at 2:00 p.m. on Friday. As for Kuna, they will challenge Caldwell at 11:00 a.m. on Tuesday. Kuna has given up an average of 10 runs per game this season, so hopefully the team got some pitching drills in this week.
