If Ross was riding high off their 15-5 takedown of Sandusky last Thursday, their most recent game may have dampened their spirits a bit. The Ross Little Giants fell 8-5 to the Southview Cougars on Friday.
Rileigh DeAnda spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered three earned (and five unearned) runs on eight hits. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than two walks in five consecutive pitching appearances.
On the hitting side, Rubi Almaguer was cooking despite her team's loss, going 2-for-5 with a stolen base, two RBI, and a double. She has been hot recently, having posted at least one stolen base the last four times she's played. Alivia Weisenauer was another key contributor, scoring a run and stealing a base while going 2-for-4.
Ross' defeat dropped their record down to 3-9. As for Southview, their victory (their first of the season) made their record 1-2.
Ross will play host again on Monday to welcome Findlay, where first pitch is scheduled at 5:00 p.m. As for Southview, they will be staying on the road on Saturday to face off against Liberty Center at 11:00 a.m. Liberty Center's pitching crew has only allowed 3.4 runs per game this season, so Southview's hitters will have their work cut out for them.
