The Calvary Christian Cougars will head out to take on the Bellevue Tigers at 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Calvary Christian is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 7.7 runs per game this season.
While Calvary Christian's win against Ludlow wasn't quite the blowout it was the last time the pair played, they still came out on top. The Cougars won by a run and slipped past the Panthers 4-3. While the Cougars didn't have the best season last year (they finished 13-17), it's starting to look like those struggles are a thing of the past.
Josh Ruwe was a major factor no matter where he played. He looked comfortable on the mound, striking out seven batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs or hits.

Ruwe wasn't the only one making solid contact as four players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Cal Ruwe, who went 1-for-3 with one RBI. Nate Ruwe also deserves some recognition as he got his first hit of the season.
Meanwhile, Bellevue was not able to break out of their rough patch on Monday as the team picked up their third straight defeat. They lost 10-1 to Holy Cross.

Calvary Christian took their victory against Bellevue in their previous matchup back in April of 2024 by a conclusive 14-0 score.
