Hallettsville is 9-1 against Industrial since May of 2021 and they'll have a chance to extend that dominance on Tuesday. The Brahmas will host the Cobras at 6:00 p.m. Both squads will be entering this one on the heels of a big victory.
Hallettsville had to skate by with only a one-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the 15-run drubbing they dealt Palacios on Friday.

Taylor Yeatts was a major factor no matter where she played. She looked comfortable on the mound, tossing five innings while giving up just two earned (and two unearned) runs off two hits. Yeatts was also big at the plate, scoring three runs while going 1-for-3.
In other batting news, Hanna Zachary was a standout: she went 3-for-5 with two triples, three runs, and two RBI. Another player making a difference was Caitlynn Halata, who went 2-for-4 with four RBI, two runs, and one double.
