While Utica might've come up empty on Tuesday, Violet Smith wasn't going down without a fight. Smith turned in nothing short of a gem, tossing seven innings while giving up three earned runs off six hits.
Even though Smith couldn't lead Utica over Marysville, she won't have to wait long to try again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday. Sadly, Smith's big day wasn't enough to stop the loss, which snapped the Chieftains' three-game streak of wins at home. With the streak broken, Smith and the Chieftains surely have a bit of extra motivation heading into Wednesday's match.
