If the Warriors were looking for revenge after losing 10-6 to the Razorbacks when the teams met back in April of 2025, then they'll just have to keep looking.
As for Walhalla, they have been performing well recently as they've won three of their last four games. That's provided a nice bump to their 8-5 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.8 runs on average over those games.
For Walhalla's part, DALTON DIAL spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered a run (which was unearned) on two hits and racked up 14 Ks. DIAL also tossed no earned runs, which is notable because the Razorbacks are 5-1 when he allows at most one earned run, but 3-4 otherwise.
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on COLLIN PHILLIPS, who went 2-for-3 with one home run and two RBI. LUKE KANAGY was another key player, going 2-for-3 with one stolen base and one run.
