Northside - Jacksonville extended their losing streak (dating back to last season) to 38 on Thursday, dropping their season record down to 0-20 in the process. They lost 21-0 to the D.H. Conley Vikings. Unfortunately, that's the second time they've come up short against the Vikings this season, as they also lost their prior matchup 19-0 last Tuesday.
As for D.H. Conley, their record is now 17-5. The result was nothing new for the Vikings, who have now won nine games by six runs or more so far this season.
For D.H. Conley's part, Kendall Howard was a major factor no matter where she played. She looked comfortable on the mound, pitching two innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. Howard has been consistent for a while: she hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts in 19 consecutive appearances. She was also stellar in the batter's box, going a perfect 1-for-1 with two runs, one triple, and two RBI.
In other batting news, Ava Gaddis and Timiya Pittman did most of the damage at the plate: Gaddis got on base in all four of her plate appearances with three runs and two RBI, while Pittman went 1-for-3 with two stolen bases, two runs, and two RBI. Those two RBI gave Pittman a new career-high. Ryleigh Stocks also deserves some recognition as she snagged her first stolen base of the season.
As of now, neither Northside - Jacksonville nor D.H. Conley have any future games scheduled.
