Prairie View had already won nine in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 6.4 runs) and they went ahead and made it ten on Monday. They narrowly escaped with a victory as the squad sidled past the Fort Collins Lambkins 4-2. That result was just more of the same for these two, as the Thunderhawks also won the last time the pair played back in May of 2024.
Favi Gaeta and Jerry Stone were major factors no matter where they played. On the mound, Gaeta struck out 13 batters over six innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off four hits (and not a single walk). Meanwhile, Stone pitched one inning while giving up no earned runs or hits. That's the most strikeouts Gaeta has posted since back in May of 2024. At bat, Gaeta went 2-for-3 with one triple, while Stone earned one RBI, one run, and one stolen base.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Jayden Silva, who earned two runs and three stolen bases. Another player making a difference was Preston Miller, who went 1-for-2 with two RBI.
Prairie View hit smart and finished the game with only one strikeout. The team has now struck out at least three batters in three consecutive matches.
Prairie View pushed their record up to 14-3 with the win, which was their seventh straight at home dating back to last season. Those home victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.1 runs on average over those games. As for Fort Collins, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost three of their last four contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 6-9 record this season.
Prairie View will venture away from home to square off against Riverdale Ridge at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday. As for Fort Collins, they will welcome Greeley West at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday. The Spartans have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 10.47 runs per game on average), something the Lambkins will no doubt try to take advantage of.
