The Unaka Rangers will venture away from home to challenge the Cloudland Highlanders at 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Unaka is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 6.9 runs per game this season.
Things were looking good for Unaka after they put the first run on the board on Monday, but unfortunately for them things went downhill from there. They fell 6-3 to West Greene.

On the hitting side, Brooklyn Campbell was cooking despite her team's loss, going 1-for-3 with two runs and one stolen base. Another player making a difference was Katlyn Dugger, who went 2-for-3 with one stolen base and one RBI.
Meanwhile, Cloudland lost a heartbreaker to North Greene when they met back in May of 2024, and they left with a heavy heart again on Thursday. The Highlanders came up short against the Huskies, falling 13-2. Having soared to a lofty ten runs in the game before, the Highlanders couldn't push the score so high this time.
Cloudland's loss was their first in the district, dropping their district record down to 2-1 and their overall record down to 9-12. As for Unaka, they have been struggling recently as they've lost six of their last eight matches. That's put a noticeable dent in their 5-7 record this season.
Unaka couldn't quite get it done against Cloudland when the teams last played back in May of 2024 as they fell 8-3. Can the Rangers avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
