Softball Preview: Webster County vs. Hardaway Hawks
Webster County will face off against the Hardaway Hawks at 5:30 p.m. on Monday. Keep an eye on the score for this one: the two teams posted some lofty run totals in their previous games.
Webster County is looking to give their home crowd another W after opening their season at home back in August. They came out on top against Randolph-Clay by a score of 15-12.
While Hardaway didn't have the best season last year (they finished 6-13), it's starting to look like those struggles are a thing of the past. They blew past Jordan 17-4 on Thursday. The Hawks might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won six contests by 11 runs or more this season.
Jayden Hamby was a standout: she scored a run and stole two bases while getting on base in all four of her plate appearances. Another player making a difference was Shelby Huff, who scored a run and stole a base while going 1-for-3.
Perhaps unsurprisingly given the score, Hardaway didn't let batters stay on the plate for long and finished the game with nine strikeouts. That's the most strikeouts they've posted since back in August of 2023.
