Softball Game Preview: Smethport Hubbers vs. Johnsonburg Rams

Smethport hasn't had much luck against Johnsonburg recently, but that could start to change on Friday. The Hubbers will be defending their home field for the first time this season when they go up against the Rams at 4:30 p.m. Having both just faced considerable losses, both teams are looking to turn things around.

Smethport is coming home looking for redemption after taking a loss in their road opener. They came up short against Port Allegany back in March, falling 13-1.

Meanwhile, Johnsonburg fell victim to DuBois Central Catholic and their airtight pitching crew on Wednesday. They lost 11-0 to the Cardinals. The Rams just can't catch a break and have now endured three losses in a row.

Smethport suffered a grim 19-0 defeat to Johnsonburg in their previous meeting back in April of 2023. Can the Hubbers avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
