Meyersdale has gone 8-2 against Windber recently and they'll look to pad the win column further on Monday. The Red Raiders will head out to take on the Ramblers at 4:30 p.m. Both squads will be entering this one on the heels of a big victory.

Windber will be up against a hot Meyersdale squad: the team just extended their winning streak to six. The Red Raiders blew past North Star 14-5 on Thursday.

Madison Berkley spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered four earned (and one unearned) runs on eight hits and racked up seven Ks.

At the plate, Isabella Sleasman was incredible, going 3-for-4 with three runs, four RBI, and one triple. That triple was her first of the season. The team also got some help courtesy of Keira Eberly, who went 2-for-5 with three runs, one triple, and one double.

They weren't the only ones making solid contact: Meyersdale kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 18 hits. That's the most hits they've posted since back in May of 2025.

Meanwhile, there's no place like home for Windber, who bounced back after a loss on the road on Thursday. They were the clear victors by a 10-3 margin over Richland on Friday.

Addie Slatcoff made a big impact while hitting and pitching. She struck out six batters over 6.2 innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off four hits. She has been consistent: she hasn't given up more than two walks in five consecutive appearances. She was also solid in the batter's box, going 2-for-4 with one double and one RBI. That's the most hits she has posted since back in March.

In other batting news, Windber got a massive performance out of Rylee Baer, who went 3-for-4 with one home run, three runs, and three RBI. Another player making a difference was Nici Costlow, who went 2-for-3 with two stolen bases, three runs, and one double.

Meyersdale's record now sits at 10-5. As for Windber, their record is now 14-4.

Monday's game might come down to which pitcher can control the ball better. Meyersdale has hit smart this season, having averaged an OBP of .471. However, it's not like Windber struggles in that department as they've averaged .466. With both teams so capable at the plate, fans should be ready for an impressive hitting performance.

Meyersdale skirted past Windber 7-5 in their previous matchup back in April. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Red Raiders since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
