Softball Preview: Cedar Creek Christian Saints vs. Seacoast Christian Academy Eagles

The Cedar Creek Christian Saints will head out on the road to square off against the Seacoast Christian Academy Eagles at 5:30 p.m. on Monday. Having both just faced considerable losses, both teams are looking to turn things around.

Cedar Creek Christian kicked off their season on the road on March 12th and hit a couple of potholes. They fell victim to a tough 38-28 defeat at the hands of Parsons Christian Academy. The loss means Cedar Creek Christian is still on the hunt for the season's first 'W'.

KeyShanti Paige made the most of her time at bat despite the final result and got on base in all seven of her plate appearances with ten stolen bases, five runs, and five RBI. The team also got some help courtesy of Maryah Matthews, who scored two runs and stole three bases while getting on base in all five of her plate appearances.

Meanwhile, sadly, Seacoast Christian Academy is still looking for their first win of the season after seven contests. They suffered a rough 31-17 defeat at the hands of Parsons Christian Academy on Thursday. Both teams can probably skip cardio this week after making that many trips around the bases.

Alani Goicoechea made the most of her time at bat despite the final result and scored five runs and stole six bases while getting on base in four of her six plate appearances. Alyssa Seebauer was another key contributor, scoring two runs and stealing two bases while getting on base in five of her six plate appearances.

Even though they lost, Seacoast Christian Academy didn't let batters stay on the plate for long and finished the game with eight strikeouts. That's the most strikeouts they've managed all season.

Cedar Creek Christian skirted past Seacoast Christian Academy 29-27 in their previous meeting back in March of 2023. The rematch might be a little tougher for Cedar Creek Christian since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
