The Harding Raiders will be playing in front of their home fans against the LaBrae Vikings at 5:00 p.m. on Thursday. LaBrae took a loss in their last matchup and will be looking to turn the tables on Harding, who comes in off a win.
Harding gave their fans exactly what they wanted out of a home opener on Monday. They put the hurt on Cardinal Mooney with a sharp 13-3 win.
Karly Trisler spent all six innings played on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered three earned runs on six hits and racked up seven Ks.
At the plate, Harding got a massive performance out of Ky'Ziya Minor, who scored three runs and stole two bases while going 2-for-3. Azarriah Phillips was another key contributor, going 2-for-4 with two stolen bases, two runs, and a triple.
LaBrae kicked off their season on the road on Monday and hit a couple of potholes. They suffered a rough 13-2 loss at the hands of Champion.
Leah DeArmitt was cooking despite her team's loss, going 1-for-2 with a home run and two RBI.
Harding came up short against LaBrae in their previous matchup back in May of 2015, falling 7-3. Thankfully for Harding, Kristin Saner (who tossed four innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off three hits) won't be suiting up this time. Will that be enough to change the final result? There's only one way to find out.
