The Frontier Cougars are taking a road trip to take on the St. Marys Blue Devils at 5:00 p.m. on Monday. Neither of those teams managed to put together many runs in their previous contests, so the offenses might be a little more motivated than usual.
It was a proper cat-fight when Frontier challenged Shadyside on Thursday. The Cougars fell 4-1 to the Tigers. The Cougars haven't had much luck with the Tigers recently, as the team has come up short the last four times they've met.

Aidan Wolfe spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered three earned (and one unearned) runs on six hits. He has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't given up more than one walk in three consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, Frontier saw four different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Gage Douglas, who went a perfect 1-for-1 with one double and one RBI. That hit was Douglas' first of the season.
Meanwhile, St. Marys was not able to break out of their rough patch on Friday as the team picked up their fourth straight loss. They came up short against Ravenswood, falling 9-2. That's two games in a row now that the Blue Devils have lost by exactly seven runs.
St. Marys' defeat dropped their record down to 6-15-1. As for Frontier, their loss dropped their record down to 2-4.
The pitchers for both teams better look sharp on Monday as neither team is afraid to steal. Frontier has been swiping bases left and right this season, having averaged 6 stolen bases per game. However, it's not like St. Marys struggles in that department as they've been averaging an even more impressive 4.5 stolen bases. The only question left is which team can snag more.
Frontier was able to grind out a solid victory over St. Marys in their previous meeting back in April of 2022, winning 12-8. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Cougars since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
