Ray extended their losing streak to seven on Saturday, dropping their season record down to 8-19 in the process. They lost 10-0 to the Williams Vikings. Considering the last time the Bearcats couldn't score was back in March, the team can't take the result too hard.

As for Williams, they have been performing well recently as they've won eight of their last ten matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 14-11 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 10.1 runs over those games.
