East Ascension waltzed into their game on Thursday with two straight wins... but they left with three. They came within a single run of losing the streak, but they secured a 6-5 W against the Dutchtown Griffins. For the Spartans, this counts as revenge for the 9-6 win the Griffins walked away with the last time they faced one another back in April of 2024.

Cayden Tullier was excellent, going 1-for-3 with one home run and two RBI. Another player making a difference was Avery Stevens, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with two RBI.

East Ascension pushed their record up to 11-7 with the victory, which was their third straight at home. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.7 runs on average over those games. As for Dutchtown, they have been struggling recently as they've lost three of their last four matchups. That's put a noticeable dent in their 7-8 record this season.

East Ascension will take on St. Joseph's Academy in a tournament on Saturday. St. Joseph's Academy has struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 7.86 runs per game on average), something East Ascension will no doubt try to take advantage of. As for Dutchtown, they will face off against Brusly at 3:30 p.m. on Friday. Brusly will roll in looking for their 11th straight win, something Dutchtown surely won't give up without a fight.
