For the first time this season, French Camp Academy will have a chance to prove themselves in a conference matchup on Tuesday. They will be playing at home against the Nanih Waiya Warriors at 6:30 p.m. French Camp Academy is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 9 runs per game this season.
French Camp Academy took a loss when they played away from home on Tuesday, but their home fans gave them all the motivation they needed on Friday. Everything went their way against Winona as French Camp Academy made off with a 13-3 victory. The result was nothing new for the Panthers, who have now won three games by nine runs or more so far this season.
Eli Withers was a major factor no matter where he played. On the mound, he struck out nine batters over five innings while giving up just two earned (and one unearned) runs off two hits. He has been consistent recently: he hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts in three consecutive appearances. He was also big at the plate, scoring a run while going 1-for-3.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Robert Bentley, who scored two runs while going 2-for-3. Logan Wright was another key player, getting on base in three of his four plate appearances with two RBI and one double.
French Camp Academy always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .543. The last time their OBP was this high was back in March of 2024.
Meanwhile, Nanih Waiya was not able to break out of their rough patch on Friday as the team picked up their fourth straight loss. They came up short against Sebastopol, falling 12-0. The match marked the first time this season in which the Warriors were not able to get on the board.
French Camp Academy has been performing well recently as they've won three of their last four contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 5-2 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 12.0 runs over those games. Nanih Waiya's defeat dropped their record down to 4-4.
French Camp Academy couldn't quite finish off Nanih Waiya when the teams last played back in March of 2024 and fell 12-10. Will French Camp Academy have more luck at home instead of on the road? Check MaxPreps after the action for a full breakdown of the game and more baseball content.
