Boylan Catholic and Byron pushed the score to 14-10 the last time they played Byron, but on Monday defenses reigned supreme. The Titans came out on top in a nail-biter against the Tigers, sneaking past 2-1. The win continues a trend for the Titans in their matchups with the Tigers: they've now won three in a row.

Ari Ousley spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered a run (which was unearned) on five hits.

At the plate, the team relied heavily on Lily Burke, who went 2-for-3 with two stolen bases, one run, and one RBI. That's the most stolen bases she has posted since back in March of 2025. Lauren Pastuska also deserves some recognition as she snagged her first stolen base of the season.

Boylan Catholic's victory bumped their record up to 9-14. As for Byron, they have been struggling recently as they've lost six of their last seven games. That's put a noticeable dent in their 8-20 record this season.

Boylan Catholic will take on Stillman Valley at 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday. The Cardinals' pitching crew has only allowed 2.9 runs per game this season, so the Titans' hitters will have their work cut out for them. Byron does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
