Hellgate hasn't had much luck against Butte recently, but that could start to change on Saturday. The Knights will head out on the road to take on the Bulldogs at 12:00 p.m. Given that the two teams suffered a loss in their last games, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this matchup.
Hellgate is leaving town to face Butte after disappointing their home crowd in their season opener. The Knights came up short against Capital on Saturday, falling 17-3.
Hellgate saw four different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Kaylie Moe, who went 1-for-2 with one run.
Meanwhile, Butte didn't have quite enough to beat Glacier on Tuesday and fell 4-3. The Bulldogs have struggled against the Wolfpack recently, as the game was their eighth consecutive lost matchup.
Brea Henderson was huge no matter where she played even without the win. She pitched seven innings while giving up just one earned (and three unearned) runs off nine hits. Henderson was also solid in the batter's box, going 1-for-2 with one home run and two RBI.
Hellgate might still be hurting after the 11-4 defeat they got from Butte in their previous meeting back in May of 2025. Can the Knights avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
