The Greenon Knights will take on the Chaminade Julienne Catholic Eagles at 5:00 p.m. on Thursday. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, these teams will really light up the scoreboard.
Greenon is looking to give their home crowd another W after opening their season at home on Tuesday. They walked away with a 10-6 win over Cedarville.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Chaminade Julienne Catholic). They put the hurt on Troy Christian with a sharp 18-7 victory on Monday. The team's explosion at the plate also rewarded Chaminade Julienne Catholic with their most commanding win of the season.
