The West Jordan Jaguars will challenge the Kearns Cougars at 3:30 p.m. on Tuesday. The timing is sure in West Jordan's favor as the squad sits on six straight wins at home while Kearns has been banged up by 12 consecutive losses on the road dating back to last season.
West Jordan had to skate by with only a two-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the ten-run drubbing they dealt Hunter on Monday. The Jaguars blew past the Wolverines 15-5. The result was nothing new for the Jaguars, who have now won ten matches by six runs or more so far this season.
