The Eagles will be playing at home against the Lions at 7:15 p.m. The teams are on pretty different trajectories at the moment (Prosper has four straight victories, McKinney has nine straight losses), but none of that matters once you're on the field.
Prosper came out on top against Plano on Thursday thanks in part to the team's impressive eight-run fourth inning. The Eagles blew past the Wildcats 15-5. The Eagles might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won nine matchups by six runs or more this season.
Peyton Moya made a big impact no matter where she played. She struck out six batters over four innings while giving up just two earned (and two unearned) runs off four hits (and not a single walk). She has been nothing but reliable on the mound: she hasn't given up more than two walks in 15 consecutive appearances. She was also big at the plate, going 2-for-3 with two runs and one RBI.
