Briarcrest Christian came tearing into Friday's game with four straight wins (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 13.5 runs), and they left with even more momentum. They walked away with a 5-1 win over the Arlington Tigers. For the Saints, this counts as revenge for the 8-7 victory the Tigers walked away with the last time they faced one another back in April of 2024.
Briarcrest Christian got a great performance from Nathan Powers as he struck out eight batters over six innings while giving up just one earned run off four hits (and not a single walk). Powers has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't tossed less than six strikeouts any time he's pitched this season.
On the hitting side, Briarcrest Christian let Clayton Speck and Luke McGee run wild. Speck scored a run while going 3-for-4, while McGee went 3-for-4 with three RBI and one stolen base. That's the most RBI McGee has posted since back in March. Another player making a difference was Landon Rogers, who scored a run and stole three bases while going 1-for-4.
Briarcrest Christian pushed their record up to 11-7 with the win, which was their third straight at home. The home victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.0 runs on average over those games. As for Arlington, they moved to 10-8 with that loss, which also ended their four-game winning streak.
Briarcrest Christian will have a chance to go back-to-back against the Tigers: the pair will be back at it again later today.
