Central Christian has gone 9-1 against Atmore Christian recently and they'll look to pad the win column further on Tuesday. The Central Christian Saints will challenge the Atmore Christian Rams at 7:00 p.m. Given that the two teams suffered a loss in their last games, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this game.
Central Christian is probably headed into the match with a chip on their shoulder considering West Florida Baptist Academy just ended the team's six-game winning streak dating back to last season on Friday. They fell just short of the Conquerors by a score of 6-5.
Central Christian saw six different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Aven Dawson, who scored two runs while going 2-for-3. Another was Calleigh Callaway, who scored a run while going 2-for-3.
Even though they lost, Central Christian was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .409. That was just more of the same: they've now posted a batting average of .308 or higher in six consecutive contests dating back to last season.
Meanwhile, Atmore Christian was not able to break out of their rough patch on Friday as the team picked up their fifth straight defeat. They lost 42-27 to Aletheia Christian Academy. One positive for the Rams, at least, is that this was the most points they've scored all season.
Tamra Stoltzfus made the most of her time at bat despite the final result and went 4-for-5 with three stolen bases, four runs, and four RBI. The dominant performance also gave her a new career-high in doubles (two). Kendall Harper also deserves some recognition as she hit her first triple of the season.
Central Christian took their victory against Atmore Christian in their previous meeting back in May of 2024 by a conclusive 9-0. The rematch might be a little tougher for Central Christian since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
