Manhattan hasn't had much luck against Seaman recently, but that could start to change on Wednesday. The Indians will look to take advantage of their home field for the first time this season as they take on the Vikings at 4:00 p.m.
Manhattan is coming home looking for redemption after taking a loss in their road opener. They came up short against Great Bend on April 1st, falling 16-2. For those keeping track at home, that's the biggest loss the Indians have suffered since April 24, 2024.
Meanwhile, Seaman came tearing into Tuesday's match with nine straight wins (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 8 runs), and they left with even more momentum. Everything went their way against the PIONEERS as they made off with a 19-3 win. The Vikings might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won nine games by seven runs or more this season.
Kynnedi Kitzman looked comfortable as she struck out six batters over three innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off two hits (and not a single walk). Those six strikeouts gave her a new career-high.
At the plate, Seaman got a massive performance out of Kayleigh Neil, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with three runs, four RBI, and one triple. That's the most RBI Neil has posted since back in May of 2024. Avery Phelps was another key player, going 2-for-3 with one home run, three RBI, and two runs.
Seaman hit smart and finished the game with only one strikeout. The team has now struck out at least five batters in 11 consecutive contests.
Manhattan couldn't quite get it done against Seaman when the teams last played back in April of 2024 as they fell 13-8. Will the Indians have more luck at home instead of on the road? Check MaxPreps after the match for a full breakdown of the game, commentary, and other softball content.
