The Neshannock Lancers are headed away from home for the first time to challenge the New Castle Hurricanes at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday. Neshannock will be strutting in after a victory while New Castle will be coming in after a loss.
Neshannock is headed out to face New Castle after opening their season at home and giving their fans just what they were looking for. Neshannock came out on top against Chartiers Valley by a score of 4-0 two weeks ago. The win was familiar territory for the Lancers, who have now won 27 matches in a row dating back to last season.
Chartiers Valley's batters probably weren't too happy with Addy Frye, who pitched a no hitter and racked up 17 Ks (she gave up a single walk). What's more, Frye gave up only zero hits, the fewest she's had since back in May of 2024.
At the plate, the team relied heavily on Miley Anderson, who scored a run and stole a base while going 2-for-4. Gabriella Antuono was another key player, scoring a run while getting on base in all three of her plate appearances.
Neshannock was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .375. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Chartiers Valley only posted a batting average of .000.
Meanwhile, New Castle came up short against Upper St. Clair on Tuesday and fell 6-3. The Hurricanes have now taken an 'L' in back-to-back games.
Aliyah Stalczynski made the most of her time at bat despite the final result and scored two runs and stole two bases while going 3-for-4. Keara Mangieri also deserves some recognition as she hit her first triple of the season.
