Minooka's last matchup with Oswego could've gone either way, but unfortunately the same can't be said for the pair's matchup on Monday. The Indians lost 10-0 to the Panthers. Considering the last time the Indians couldn't score was back in March, the team can't take the result too hard.

Meanwhile, Bolingbrook came up short against Plainfield North on Monday and fell 6-3.

Karina Choi made the most of her time at bat despite the final result and earned two runs and three stolen bases.

Minooka's loss dropped their record down to 21-12. As for Bolingbrook, their defeat dropped their record down to 4-24.

Bolingbrook's pitching crew has a crucial task ahead of them: Minooka has hit smart this season, having averaged an OBP of .444. It's a different story for Bolingbrook, though, as they've only averaged .315. Will they be able to contain Minooka's hitters?

Everything went Minooka's way against Bolingbrook in their previous meeting back in April, as Minooka made off with a 9-0 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Indians since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
