Softball Game Preview: Coleman Comets vs. Fulton Pirates

Coleman has gone a perfect 6-0 against Fulton recently and they'll look to pad the win column further on Monday. The Comets are taking a road trip to take on the Pirates at 4:00 p.m. Coleman will aim to continue their four-game streak of scoring more runs each game than the last.

Coleman had to skate by with only a one-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the 13-run drubbing they dealt Carman-Ainsworth on Saturday. The Comets put the hurt on the Cavaliers with a sharp 15-2 win.

Isabelle Lewis was a major factor while hitting and pitching. She didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only one hit while striking out 12 over five innings pitched. Those 12 strikeouts gave her a new career-high. She was also big at the plate, going 2-for-3 with three runs and one double.

In other batting news, Sydney Bovee was a standout: she got on base in all four of her plate appearances with three RBI, two runs, and one triple. That's the most runs she has posted since back in April. Another player making a difference was Kendall Allen, who went 2-for-3 with two stolen bases, two runs, and one RBI.

Coleman hit smart and finished the game with only one strikeout. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Carman-Ainsworth struck out 12 times.

Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Fulton). They were the clear victors by a 12-2 margin over St. Charles on Friday. The Pirates not only won on Friday, but they posted their biggest win since May 21, 2024 (when they won 12-0).

Coleman's record now sits at 6-13. As for Fulton, their record is now 2-6.

Coleman took their victory against Fulton in their previous meeting back in April of 2024 by a conclusive 18-1 score. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Comets since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
