The Clinton Arrows are taking a road trip to take on the Newton County Cougars at 6:45 p.m. on Friday. Clinton is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 10.3 runs per game this season.
Clinton will bounce into Friday's contest after beating North Pike, who they had gone 2-7 against in their nine prior meetings. Clinton walked away with a 4-0 victory over North Pike on Tuesday. Give some credit to the fans of both teams: the last four times they've met, the home team has come away the winner.
The result came thanks to Annalise Whitworth's shutout, as she gave up just three hits.
At the plate, EstrElla Constancio was a standout: she went 1-for-2 with one home run and two runs. Destiny Funchess also deserves some recognition as she hit her first triple of the season.
Clinton hit smart and finished the game with only one strikeout. They are a perfect 3-0 when they post two or more strikeouts.
Meanwhile, Newton County suffered their biggest loss since April 5, 2024 on Tuesday. They lost 12-3 to Clarkdale. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the Cougars' biggest loss of the season was also their lowest-scoring.
Clinton is on a roll lately: they've won three of their last four games. That's provided a nice bump to their 4-2 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.0 runs over those games. With the defeat, Newton County broke their three-game winning streak and moved their record to 3-2.
Everything went Clinton's way against Newton County in their previous matchup back in April of 2024, as Clinton made off with an 11-5 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for Clinton since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
