Wolfe City had to start their season on the road on Saturday, and it wasn't the start they were hoping for. They fell just short of the Ford Panthers by a score of 5-3. The result was an unpleasant reminder to the Wolves of the 6-1 defeat they experienced in the pair's previous head-to-head fixture back in March of 2025.
Wolfe City saw four different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Casen Pessel, who went a perfect 1-for-1 with one stolen base and one run.
The win keeps Ford at an undefeated 5-0.
Coming up, Ford will face off against Cumby at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Wolfe City will be paying especially close attention to the Panthers' contest: after the Panthers face off against De Kalb, they'll take on Wolfe City again at 6:45 p.m. on Saturday.
