Baseball Preview: Haven Wildcats vs. Nickerson Panthers
The Haven Wildcats will head out on the road to take on the Nickerson Panthers on Friday. Neither Haven nor Nickerson posted many runs in their last games, so it might be the pitching crews that decide this one.
On Tuesday, Haven didn't have quite enough to beat Hoisington and fell 4-2. The result shouldn't come as a shock considering that's the fewest runs Haven has scored all season.
Meanwhile, sadly, Nickerson is still looking for their first win of the season after six matches. They wound up on the wrong side of a tough 15-0 walloping at the hands of Hesston on Tuesday.
Haven's defeat ended a four-game streak of wins at home and dropped them to 7-3. As for Nickerson, their loss dropped their record down to 0-6.
Haven beat Nickerson 5-1 when the teams last played back in April of 2023. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was Nickerson's Colton Morrell, who pitched four innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off five hits. Now that he won't be playing on Friday, will it be that much easier for Haven to walk away with another win? There's only one way to find out.
