Independence was sadly handed a  loss on Monday, but  Kenzie Pierce did her best to prevent it. Pierce turned in nothing short of a gem,   tossing 10.1 innings while giving up just two earned  (and one unearned) runs off   five  hits.
 Even though  Pierce couldn't lead Independence over Hoover, she won't have to wait long to try again: the teams have a rematch scheduled  at 6:00  p.m.  on Tuesday. The Patriots haven't beaten the Huskies recently, having gone 0-8 since April of 2019.
