While Saturday's win was certainly a team effort, someone pulling more than their own weight was underclassman Layla Burt. She wasn't messing around on Saturday, striking out nine batters over seven innings while giving up just one earned run off three hits (and only one walk). The pitching appearance was her 18th straight with two or fewer walks.
Burt's strong effort led Loyd Star over Puckett and she'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 6:30 p.m. on Monday. The Wolves are coming into the match hot: they've won seven straight on the road. Will Burt and the Hornets have enough to hand them a loss? Check MaxPreps after the match for a full breakdown of the game, commentary, and other softball content.
