Leyden is preparing for their first conference matchup of the season on Monday. They will venture away from home to square off against the Willowbrook Warriors at 4:45 p.m. Leyden is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 8.3 runs per game this season.
Leyden managed to slip by Lyons the last time these teams faced off, but didn't have those same answers this time around. The Eagles came up short against the Lions on Tuesday, falling 10-3. The Eagles' loss signaled the end of their four-game winning streak.
Leyden saw four different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Elise Bertsche, who went 1-for-4 with one home run and two runs. That home run marked the first that Bertsche has launched this season. Angelina Guillen was another, going 1-for-3 with one home run and two RBI.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Willowbrook). Everything went their way against Glenbard West on Saturday as they made off with a 15-6 victory. The team's explosion at the plate also rewarded the Warriors with their most commanding win of the season.
The win made it two in a row for Willowbrook and bumps their season record up to 4-9. The victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 10.0 runs over those games. As for Leyden, their defeat dropped their record down to 4-2.
Leyden was able to grind out a solid win over Willowbrook in their previous meeting back in May of 2025, winning 14-11. Will the Eagles repeat their success, or do the Warriors have a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
