El Camino's speedy runners might be the difference in Tuesday's game. The Wildcats have been swiping bases left and right this season, having averaged 3.5 stolen bases per game. It's a different story for University City, though, as they've been averaging only 0.3 stolen bases. Will they be able to secure the bases, or will El Camino continue to outrun the ball?
El Camino was able to grind out a solid win over University City in their previous meeting back in March of 2022, winning 3-0. Do the Wildcats have another victory up their sleeve, or will the Centurions turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
