Mya Grady made a major impact on Thursday, scoring a run and stealing a base while getting on base in four of her five plate appearances. Thanks to that strong showing, she's now averaging 5.1 strikeouts per game. As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was her sixth in a row with more than five innings dating back to last season. This year, Grady has an ERA of 4 over 71 innings pitched.
Grady and Thornton will welcome Aurora Central at 9:00 a.m. on Saturday. Thornton got just the result they wanted when they last faced Aurora Central, probably because Grady had a solid game then too: she struck out eight batters over eight innings while giving up four earned (and five unearned) runs off 12 hits. Can she match (or beat) that stellar performance? Check MaxPreps after the match for a full breakdown of the game, commentary, and other softball content.
