The Hammond Skyhawks will venture away from home to challenge the Wardlaw Academy Patriots at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday.
Hammond lost 12-3 to Wilson Hall on Tuesday.
Ava Miller made the most of her time at bat despite the final result and scored a run while going 2-for-3.
Meanwhile, Wardlaw Academy took care of business in their home opener (and then some) on Tuesday. They blew past Laurens Academy 19-8. The victory was some much needed relief for the Patriots as it spelled an end to their eight-game losing streak dating back to last season.
The team relied heavily on Taylor Hill (JR), who got on base in all five of her plate appearances with four runs, one triple, and two RBI. Kya McCormick ( SR) was another key player, scoring three runs and stealing a base while going 2-for-4.
Hammond took their win against Wardlaw Academy when the teams last played back in March of 2024 by a conclusive 13-2. The rematch might be a little tougher for Hammond since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
