Winning always takes teamwork, but on Thursday Haley Helm stepped things up a notch to give Champaign Central the 'W'. Helm made a splash, keeping things locked down with no earned runs or hits while striking out eight over five innings pitched. It looks like she has Urbana's number considering she had a big game the last time she faced them, too.
Helm and Champaign Central will head out on the road to face off against Peoria Notre Dame at 4:30 p.m. on Monday. Champaign Central has some work to do to even out the 1-6 series between these two since April of 2016, but a win here would be a good start.
