Softball Game Preview: Nokomis Warriors vs. Messalonskee Eagles

The Nokomis Warriors will head out to challenge the Messalonskee Eagles at 4:15 p.m. on Friday. Given that the two teams suffered a loss in their last games, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this contest.

Erskine Academy hit Nokomis with a five-run fourth inning on Wednesday, which goes a long way in explaining the final result. The Warriors came up short against the Eagles, falling 11-5.

Meanwhile, Messalonskee was not able to break out of their rough patch on Wednesday as the team picked up their eighth straight loss dating back to last season. They were a single run away from ending the streak, but they lost a 5-4 heartbreaker at the hands of Lewiston.

Nokomis suffered a grim 9-1 defeat to Messalonskee in their previous matchup back in May of 2021. Can the Warriors avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
