The Citrus Hurricanes will take on the Land O' Lakes Gators at 1:00 p.m. on Friday. Citrus is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 7.3 runs per game this season.
Last Thursday, Citrus didn't have quite enough to beat Tavares and fell 7-6.
Paisley Williamson put in work no matter where she played. She tossed seven innings while giving up three earned (and four unearned) runs off five hits. Williamson was also big at the plate, scoring two runs and stealing a base while going 2-for-4.
In other batting news, Makaila Anderson made the most of her time at bat despite the final result and scored a run and stole a base while going 2-for-3. Another player making a difference was Makayla Hetman, who went 1-for-4 with three stolen bases.
Even though they lost, Citrus kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 11 hits. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now got at least eight hits in five consecutive matches.
Meanwhile, Land O' Lakes never let their opponents score on Tuesday. They put the hurt on Zephyrhills with a sharp 6-0 win. The result was nothing new for the Gators, who have now won four games by six runs or more so far this season.
The team relied heavily on Jazlynne Whittington, who scored two runs and stole a base while going 3-for-3. That's the most hits she has posted since back in March of 2024. Jaila Mitchell was another key player, scoring a run while going 2-for-3.
Citrus has been struggling recently as they've lost three of their last four contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 6-5 record this season. The victory snapped Land O' Lakes' losing streak at three games and leaves them with a 6-7 record.
