The Independence Eagles will venture away from home to square off against the Ravenwood Raptors at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday. Neither Independence nor Ravenwood posted many runs in their last games, so it might be the pitching crews that decide this one.
Independence easily dispatched Columbia Central on Monday, but unfortunately both the margin and the ultimate result were a different story in this one. The Eagles fell just short of Brentwood by a score of 2-0 on Tuesday. For those keeping track at home, that's the closest loss the Eagles have suffered since April 17, 2024.

Independence came out on top in a nail-biter against Ravenwood when the teams last played back in March, sneaking past 2-1. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Eagles since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
