Bonduel and Manawa are an even 5-5 against one another since April of 2023, but likely not for long. The Bears will head out on the road to challenge the Wolves at 4:30 p.m. on Monday. Bonduel's pitching crew has only allowed 2.7 runs per game this season, so Manawa's hitters will have their work cut out for them.
Bonduel is probably headed into the matchup with a chip on their shoulder considering Almond-Bancroft just ended the team's 12-game winning streak on Friday. They fell 3-0 to the Eagles. Having soared to a lofty 16 runs in the game before, the Bears' shutout was a dramatic turnaround.
Meanwhile, after soaring to 16 runs the game before, Manawa was a bit more limited in their contest on Thursday. They took a 5-2 hit to the loss column at the hands of Amherst.
Olivia Zielke spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered five runs (all of which were unearned) on four hits and racked up ten Ks. She has been consistent: she hasn't given up more than one walk in five consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, Manawa saw three different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Alayna Seeger, who went 1-for-4 with one run.
Manawa's defeat dropped their record down to 7-9. As for Bonduel, their loss dropped their record down to 19-2.
Everything went Bonduel's way against Manawa in their previous meeting back in April, as Bonduel made off with an 8-1 victory. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Bears since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
