Coventry has gone 8-2 against Chariho recently and they'll look to pad the win column further on Friday. The Oakers are headed away from home for the first time to challenge the Chargers at 4:30 p.m. Chariho took a loss in their last matchup and will be looking to turn the tables on Coventry, who comes in off a win.

Coventry is headed out to face Chariho after opening their season at home and giving their fans just what they were looking for. The Oakers came out on top against Westerly by a score of 11-7 on Friday. The Oakers haven't had any issues with the Bulldogs recently, as the game was their fifth consecutive win against them.

Leah Lapham was incredible, getting on base in all four of her plate appearances with one home run and two runs. The team also got some help courtesy of Emily Spadoni, who scored two runs while getting on base in three of her four plate appearances.

Meanwhile, Chariho didn't have quite enough to beat Waterford on Thursday and fell 5-3. The loss was the Chargers' first of the season.

Brianna DeGiacomo was cooking despite her team's loss, going 1-for-3 with one home run and two RBI. That home run marked the first that she launched this season.

Coventry couldn't quite finish off Chariho in their previous matchup back in May of 2024 and fell 2-0. Can the Oakers avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
