Belvidere was sadly handed a loss on Saturday, but Peyton Manring did her best to prevent it. Manring was unstoppable, pitching seven innings while giving up just two earned (and two unearned) runs off nine hits.
Even though Manring couldn't lead Belvidere over North Boone, she won't have to wait long to try again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday. The Buccaneers will be headed into this one with a sizable disadvantage in the rankings (they're ranked 152 places lower in Illinois), but they're not letting that get them down. Will they be able to pull off an upset behind Manring? Come back here after the game to get an analysis of the match and other softball content.
