Trumann is preparing for their first conference matchup of the season on Tuesday. They will host the Lonoke Jackrabbits at 4:30 p.m. Both come into the match bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
Trumann was handed a 13-run defeat in their previous outing, but that didn't affect their clutch gene on Monday. They had just enough and edged out East Poinsett County 5-4. Give some credit to the fans of both teams: the last four times they've met, the home team has come away the winner.
Peyton Chaffin spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered just two earned (and two unearned) runs on seven hits.
