Douglas had to kick off their season on the road on Tuesday, but they showed no ill effects. They walked away with a 12-9 win over the Reed Raiders. That result was just more of the same for these two, as the Tigers also won the last time the pair played back in May of 2024.

Camryn McLelland was a major factor no matter where she played. She struck out ten batters over seven innings while giving up just two earned (and seven unearned) runs off ten hits. McLelland was also big at the plate, scoring a run while going 2-for-4.

In other batting news, Cameron Coats and Ava Gildea did most of the damage at the plate: Coats went 2-for-4 with one home run and two RBI, while Gildea scored two runs while getting on base in all four of her plate appearances. Another player making a difference was Peyton Simpson, who went 1-for-3 with one home run and two RBI.

Reed's defeat dropped their record down to 1-1.

Douglas will have a chance to go back-to-back against Reed: the pair's next game is a rematch scheduled at 3:45 p.m. on Monday.
