After flying high against Carlisle last Monday, Eaton came back down to earth. The Eagles took a 10-7 hit to the loss column at the hands of the St. Henry Redskins on Saturday. The Eagles were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Redskins apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played back in April of 2024.
Meredith Pieratt spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered seven earned (and three unearned) runs on 12 hits and racked up ten Ks. Those hits were her first of the season.
On the hitting side, Ella Statzer stepped up to lead a balanced group of hitters: she scored two runs and stole three bases while going 1-for-4. She also put up a double, which was her first of the season. Another player making a difference was Julie Schrimper, who went 2-for-4 with one home run and three RBI.
Eaton's defeat dropped their record down to 2-2. As for St. Henry, the victory made it two in a row for them and bumps their season record up to 3-4.
While Eaton had to take the loss, they won't have to wait long to give it another shot: the pair will be back at it again later today.
