El Segundo came out on top against South on Friday thanks in part to the team's impressive four-run third inning. The Eagles walked away with a 5-2 win over the Spartans. This was a revenge game for the Eagles: when they faced off against the Spartans back in April, they had to take a 10-0 defeat.
Molly McAndrews spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered just two earned runs on ten hits.
On the hitting side, Carter Cswaykus was a standout: she went 3-for-4 with one home run and two RBI. Taryn Walker also deserves some recognition as she launched her first home run of the season.
They weren't the only ones working in the home run department: El Segundo lost a few balls and finished the game with three home runs. That's the most home runs they've posted since back in March of 2025.
The victory made it two in a row for El Segundo and bumps their season record up to 12-13. It's not like the team was facing easy opposition over that stretch either, as it included 18-8 Torrance (their opponents had an average overall winning percentage of 59.6% over those games). As for South, they have been struggling recently as they've lost three of their last four games. That's put a noticeable dent in their 13-13 record this season.
Both squads will have to hit the road in their upcoming contests. El Segundo will challenge Valley Christian at 3:30 p.m. on Monday. The Eagles' pitchers better be ready for this one: the Defenders have averaged an impressive 8.2 runs per game this season. As for South, they will take on Torrance at 6:00 p.m. on Monday. The Tartars' pitching crew has only allowed 3.1 runs per game this season, so the Spartans' hitters will have their work cut out for them.
