Attica and North Vermillion are an even 5-5 against one another since April of 2018, but likely not for long. The Red Ramblers are taking a road trip to take on the Falcons at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday. Attica is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 8.2 runs per game this season.
Attica will roll into the matchup after a wild two-game stretch: they only put up two runs on Saturday, then bounced right back against Faith Christian on Tuesday. The Red Ramblers were the clear victors by a 13-3 margin over the Eagles. The win was some much needed relief for the Red Ramblers as it spelled an end to their three-game losing streak.

Attica was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .400. That was just more of the same: they've now posted a batting average of .300 or higher in three consecutive games.
Bismarck-Henning/Rossville-Alvin hit North Vermillion with a seven-run fourth inning on Thursday, which goes a long way in explaining the final result. The Falcons lost 13-3 to the Blue Devils. The Falcons have now taken an 'L' in back-to-back games.

North Vermillion's pitching crew has a crucial task ahead of them: Attica has been making plenty of contact this season, having averaged 9.2 hits per game. It's a different story for North Vermillion, though, as they've been averaging 12 hits. Given Attica's sizable advantage in that area, the Falcons will need to find a way to close that gap.
