Carbondale came out on top against Effingham on Friday thanks in part to Anniston Thompson's efforts. Thompson turned in nothing short of a gem, pitching seven innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off five hits.
Thompson's effort led Carbondale over Effingham and she'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday. The Terriers will be headed into this one with a sizable disadvantage in the rankings (they're ranked 169 places lower in Illinois), but they're not letting that get them down. Will they be able to pull off an upset behind Thompson? Check MaxPreps after the action for a full breakdown of the game and more softball content.
