DuPont Manual was led to victory by Olivia Kunkle, who turned in her biggest game of the season on Monday. Kunkle turned in nothing short of a gem: she didn't allow a single earned run while striking out 14 over six innings pitched. She has been consistent recently: she hasn't pitched less than six innings in three consecutive pitching appearances.
Kunkle and DuPont Manual will look to defend their home field in Tuesday's first game against Eastern. DuPont Manual will be headed into this one with a pretty big disadvantage in the rankings (they're ranked 56 places lower in Kentucky), but they're not letting that get them down. Will they be able to pull off an upset behind Kunkle? Check MaxPreps after the action for a full breakdown of the game and more softball content.
