Softball Preview: Normandy Invaders vs. Cuyahoga Heights Red Wolves

The Normandy Invaders will be playing at home against the Cuyahoga Heights Red Wolves at 5:00 p.m. on Thursday. Normandy will be strutting in after a win while Cuyahoga Heights will be coming in after a loss.

Normandy had to travel to play their first game of the season, but the final result was worth the trip. They won by a run and slipped past Westlake 8-7.

Izzy Akin spent all seven innings played on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered three earned (and four unearned) runs on nine hits and racked up ten Ks.

On the hitting side, Abby White was incredible, firing off two home runs and four RBI while going 3-for-4. The team also got some help courtesy of Jade Thorsky, who scored two runs while going 1-for-3.

Meanwhile, Cuyahoga Heights fell victim to a tough 14-1 defeat at the hands of Olmsted Falls on Monday.

Normandy might still be hurting after the 13-6 loss they got from Cuyahoga Heights in their previous meeting back in March of 2022. Will Normandy have more luck at home instead of on the road? Check MaxPreps after the match for a full breakdown of the game, commentary, and other softball content.
