Softball Game Preview: West Holmes Knights vs. River View Black Bears

The West Holmes Knights will head out to face off against the River View Black Bears at 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday.

West Holmes can't be to happy about their upcoming road game considering what happened when they opened their season on the away from home on Monday. They lost 27-8 to West Muskingum. The Knights haven't had much luck with the Tornadoes recently, as the team has come up short the last four times they've met.

West Holmes saw four different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was BRIAR CLINE, who scored two runs while going 1-for-3.

Meanwhile, it was close, but on Saturday River View sidestepped East Canton for an 8-6 victory.

The team relied heavily on Hallie Wallace, who scored a run while going 1-for-4. The dominant performance also gave her a new career-high in RBI (two). Another player making a difference was Kayla McPeak, who went 1-for-4 with one stolen base and two RBI.

West Holmes came out on top in a nail-biter against River View when the teams last played back in April of 2021, sneaking past 7-6. Will West Holmes repeat their success, or does River View has a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
