On Friday Naomi Rikkola made a splash, going 3-for-4 with a home run, four runs, and four RBI. It looks like she has Oconto's number considering she had a big game the last time she faced them, too. As if that's not impressive enough, Rikkola has stolen one or more stolen bases every time she's hit the field. This year, she has slashed 0.500/0.667/1.250 with 9 runs.

Sevastopol will be headed into this one with a pretty big disadvantage in the rankings (they're ranked 101 places lower in Wisconsin), but they're not letting that get them down.
