Ava Magnani posted a new career-high in strikeouts on Thursday. She struck out seven batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs or hits (and only one walk). She was up against Lincoln High and has quite the history against that squad, as she also had a great game the last time she faced them back in August of 2023. Magnani has been consistent recently: she hasn't given up more than one walk in three consecutive pitching appearances.
Magnani and Kearney will look to defend their home field on Saturday against Aurora at 8:30 a.m. Magnani has dominated as far as hits are concerned (she's averaged 0.9 per game this season), but she's got her work cut out for her considering the Huskies have only allowed 5.67 per game this season.
