Brock is a perfect 3-0 against Brownwood since February of 2015 and they'll have a chance to extend that dominance on Thursday. The Eagles will face off against the Lions at 6:30 p.m. Brock is currently enjoying a perfect season and no doubt wants to keep things rolling.

Brock's pitching crew heads into the game hoping to repeat the dominance they displayed on Tuesday. Everything went their way against Glen Rose as they made off with a 7-0 win. The Eagles might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won 14 matches by six runs or more this season.

Brownwood hadn't beaten Graham on the road since March 8, 2019 but that history sure didn't bother them on Tuesday. The Lions blew past the Steers 14-5. The victory made it back-to-back wins for the Lions.

Kaydence Allen spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered only one earned (and four unearned) runs on five hits and racked up 11 Ks. She has been consistent : she hasn't tossed less than six strikeouts in seven consecutive appearances.

On the hitting side, Carlee Burks and Jeniffer Romero did most of the damage at the plate: Burks went 3-for-5 with one home run, three runs, and three RBI, while Romero scored four runs and stole a base while going 4-for-5. Those four runs gave Romero a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Chloe Walls, who scored a run and stole a base while going 2-for-5.

Brownwood was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .400. That was just more of the same: they've now posted a batting average of .310 or higher in four consecutive contests.

Brock's victory was their 12th straight at home, which pushed their record up to 24-0-2. Those home wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 0.9 runs on average over those games. As for Brownwood, their victory bumped their record up to 15-10.

Brock beat Brownwood 6-1 when the teams last played on April 1st. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Eagles since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
