If Olton was feeling good fresh off their 12-4 takedown of Crosbyton last Friday, their most recent game may have dampened their spirits a bit. The Olton Mustangs fell just short of the Floydada Whirlwinds by a score of 9-8 on Tuesday. The Mustangs were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Whirlwinds apparently hadn't forgotten their defeat the last time these teams played back in March of 2024.
Olton has also been struggling recently as they've lost five of their last six games. That's put a noticeable dent in their 2-7 record this season. Those losses can't be blamed on the team's hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 6.3 runs over those games. The victory snapped Floydada's losing streak at five games dating back to last season and leaves them with a 1-4 record.
Looking ahead, Olton will challenge Kress at 4:30 p.m. on Friday. As for Floydada, they will take on New Deal at 11:00 a.m. on Monday.
