Hun has gone a perfect 10-0 against Hill School recently and they'll look to pad the win column further on Thursday. The Raiders will head out to square off against the Rams at 4:15 p.m. Hill School took a loss in their last contest and will be looking to turn the tables on Hun, who comes in off a win.

Hill School will be up against a hot Hun team: the squad just extended their winning streak to three. Everything went the Raiders' way against Peddie on Tuesday as they made off with an 11-1 win. The result was nothing new for the Raiders, who have now won five games by six runs or more so far this season.

For whatever reason, it's the away team that's had the advantage when Hill School and Blair Academy meet (three straight games heading into this one) and that held true again on Wednesday. The Rams lost 16-10 to the Bucs.

Willow Gall and Maria Halvey stepped up to the plate in a big way. Gall went 2-for-4 with two triples, three runs, and two RBI, while Halvey went 1-for-3 with three RBI, two runs, and one triple. Those triples marked the first that Gall has hit this season. Another player making a difference was Sammie Faella, who went 2-for-3 with three runs.

Hun's victory was their 11th straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 11-1. Those home wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 10.5 runs over those games. As for Hill School, their defeat dropped their record down to 2-8.

Everything went Hun's way against Hill School in their previous meeting back in April, as Hun made off with an 11-1 victory. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Raiders since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
