Softball Game Preview: Biggersville Lions vs. Wheeler Eagles

The Biggersville Lions are taking a road trip to face off against the Wheeler Eagles at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday. Keep an eye on the score for this one: the two teams posted some lofty run totals in their previous games.

Biggersville lost a heartbreaker the last time they played Baldwyn, but it's fair to say they got their revenge given the result of Monday's match. Biggersville put the hurt on Baldwyn with a sharp 11-1 victory on Monday. The win made it back-to-back victories for the Lions.

Meanwhile, Wheeler got the win against Thrasher on Tuesday by a conclusive 11-1. The result was nothing new for the Eagles, who have now won ten games by nine runs or more so far this season.

Wheeler is on a roll lately: they've won eight of their last nine contests. That's provided a massive bump to their 11-5 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 11.6 runs over those games. Biggersville's victory bumped their record up to 4-7.

Biggersville suffered a grim 11-1 defeat to Wheeler when the teams last played last Wednesday. Can Biggersville avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
