Somonauk was led to victory by Izabelle Podnar, who turned in her biggest game of the season on Friday. Podnar was dialed in and didn't allow a single earned run while striking out six over five innings pitched. She played a big game the last time she faced Earlville, so the team probably should've seen her coming.
Podnar and Somonauk will head out on the road to face off against Newark at 4:30 p.m. on Monday. Somonauk will be headed into this one with a pretty big disadvantage in the rankings (they're ranked 313 places lower in Illinois), but they're not letting that get them down. Will they be able to pull off an upset behind Podnar? Check back here after the action for a full breakdown and analysis of the contest.
