The Ozaukee Warriors will face off against the Dominican Knights at 5:00 p.m. on Monday. Ozaukee has given up an average of 7.9 runs per game this season, but Monday's game will give them a chance to turn things around.
Ozaukee managed to slip by Roncalli the last time these teams faced off, but didn't have those same answers this time around. The Warriors came up short against the Jets on Friday, falling 14-6. The Warriors have now taken an 'L' in back-to-back games.
Colter Zimdars was cooking despite his team's loss, going 2-for-4 with one stolen base, one run, and one double. That double marked the first that he has hit this season. Another player making a difference was Owen Uselding, who went 2-for-4 with one run, one double, and one RBI.
Meanwhile, there's no place like home for Dominican, who bounced back after a loss on the road on Thursday. They put the hurt on Cudahy with a sharp 15-5 win on Friday. Considering the Knights have won ten matchups by more than six runs this season, Friday's blowout was nothing new.
Xavier Parlier made a big impact no matter where he played. He looked comfortable on the mound, striking out seven batters over five innings while giving up just one earned (and four unearned) runs off six hits. That's the most strikeouts he has posted over his last five contests. He was also big at the plate, going 1-for-3 with three runs and one stolen base. Dominican is 8-2 when Parlier posts two or more runs, but 2-11 otherwise.
In other batting news, Levi Kolb was a standout: he went 1-for-3 with three RBI, one run, and one double. Those three RBI gave him a new career-high. The team also got some help courtesy of Colin Flattery, who went 2-for-3 with four RBI.
Dominican's victory bumped their record up to 10-13. As for Ozaukee, their loss dropped their record down to 2-12.
The pitchers for both teams better look sharp on Monday as neither team is afraid to steal. Ozaukee has been swiping bases left and right this season, having averaged 3 stolen bases per game. However, it's not like Dominican struggles in that department as they've been averaging an even more impressive 5.2 stolen bases. The only question left is which team can snag more.
Ozaukee couldn't quite finish off Dominican when the teams last played back in May of 2025 and fell 11-9. Can the Warriors avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
