Baseball Preview: Canyon View Falcons vs. Juab Wasps

Suggested Video

Canyon View is on a seven-game streak of home wins (dating back to last season), while Juab is on an eight-game streak of away wins (also dating back to last season): one of those streaks is about to end. The Falcons will welcome the Wasps at 3:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Canyon View is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 10.1 runs per game this season.

Canyon View had to skate by with only a one-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the six-run drubbing they dealt North Sanpete on Friday. The Falcons put the hurt on the Hawks with a sharp 10-4 win. The Falcons might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won 12 games by six runs or more this season.

Zach Maine and Jarron Bradshaw did most of the damage at the plate: Maine went 1-for-3 with one home run, three runs, and two RBI, while Bradshaw went 2-for-3 with two runs, one triple, and one RBI. Those three runs gave Maine a new career-high. Asher Slack was another key player, going 1-for-4 with one stolen base, two RBI, and one run.

They weren't the only ones making solid contact: Canyon View kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 11 hits. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now got at least eight hits in 14 consecutive contests.

Juab came out on top against Manti on Monday thanks in part to the team's impressive six-run fifth inning. The Wasps took their matchup against the Templars 8-5.

Corbin Buchanan spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered five runs (all of which were unearned) on six hits and racked up 12 Ks. He has been consistent: he hasn't given up more than one earned run in seven consecutive appearances.

At the plate, the team relied heavily on Austin Park, who went 3-for-4 with two runs, one triple, and one stolen base. Another player making a difference was Connor Cowan, who went 1-for-4 with one home run and two RBI.

Canyon View's victory bumped their record up to 20-3. As for Juab, their win bumped their record up to 17-5.

Both the two teams just can't seem to miss. Canyon View has been making plenty of contact this season, having averaged 10.7 hits per game. However, it's not like Juab struggles in that department as they've been averaging only 4.8 hits. With both teams so capable at the plate, fans should be ready for an impressive hitting performance.

Canyon View might still be hurting after the 13-4 defeat they got from Juab in their previous meeting back in April of 2024. Can the Falcons avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
