They were a single run away from ending the streak, but they lost a 2-1 heartbreaker at the hands of the Papillion-LaVista Monarchs. That's two games in a row now that the Warriors have lost by just one run.

One of them was Markus Chandler, who scored a run while getting on base in three of his six plate appearances. That run marked the first that Chandler scored this season.
