Softball Preview: South Spartans vs. North Saxons

South has been on the road for two straight, but on Monday they'll finally head home. They will take on the North Saxons at 3:30 p.m. on Monday.

South might be feeling deja-vu: they lost 7-3 to El Segundo, which was the same score (and result) they got the week prior. South has struggled against El Segundo recently, as their game on Friday was their fourth consecutive lost matchup.

Meanwhile, North can now show off eight landslide victories after their most recent contest on Friday. They never let Lawndale onto the board and left with a 14-0 win.

South's defeat dropped their record down to 4-12. As for North, they are on a roll lately: they've won eight of their last nine matchups, which provided a massive bump to their 15-8-1 record this season.

South might still be hurting after the 14-1 loss they got from North when the teams last played back in March. A big factor in that loss was the dominant performance of North's Isis Jones, who didn't allow a single earned run and only one hit while striking out six over 4.1 innings pitched. Now that South knows the damage she can cause, will they be able to stop her this time? There's only one way to find out.
