The St. Joseph Flyers will venture away from home to face off against the Sacred Heart Indians at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday. St. Joseph is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 8.7 runs per game this season.
Last Friday, St. Joseph didn't have quite enough to beat Santa Gertrudis Academy and fell 4-3.
Shayne Meismer spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered four earned runs on eight hits and racked up 13 Ks. She has been consistent for a while: she hasn't given up more than two walks in ten consecutive appearances.
At the plate, Jazmyn Gamez made the most of her time at bat despite the final result and went 1-for-2 with one triple and two RBI. Another player making a difference was Ava Martinez, who scored a run and stole a base while going 1-for-4.
Meanwhile, everything went Sacred Heart's way against Brazos on Saturday as Sacred Heart made off with a 14-4 victory. Considering the Indians have won six matchups by more than five runs this season, Saturday's blowout was nothing new.
The win made it two in a row for Sacred Heart and bumps their season record up to 7-3. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.0 runs on average over those games. As for St. Joseph, their loss ended a ten-game streak of wins at home dating back to last season and dropped them to 11-4.
St. Joseph came out on top in a nail-biter against Sacred Heart in their previous meeting back in April of 2024, sneaking past 3-2. The rematch might be a little tougher for St. Joseph since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
