If Prairie Ridge was riding high fresh off their 7-0 takedown of Conant on Friday, their most recent game may have dampened their spirits a bit. The Wolves fell just short of the Lake Forest Scouts by a score of 3-2 on Saturday. The Wolves were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Scouts apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played back in May of 2024.
Prairie Ridge has also traveled a rocky road recently, having lost three of their last four matches. That's put a noticeable dent in their 25-9-1 record this season. That patch can't be blamed on the team's pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.8 runs on average over those games. As for Lake Forest, the win was the fourth in a row for them, bringing their record up to 16-16.
Looking ahead, Prairie Ridge will host Grayslake North at 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday. As for Lake Forest, they will head out on the road to challenge Wauconda at 4:30 p.m. on Thursday. The last three games the Bulldogs have played have been within two runs, so don't be surprised if it's a close one.
