The Warriors will venture away from home to face off against the Cavaliers at 5:30 p.m. North Miami is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 8.2 runs per game this season.

North Miami is probably headed into the game with a chip on their shoulder considering Western just ended the team's seven-game winning streak on Tuesday. They came up short against the Panthers, falling 12-5. For those keeping track at home, that's the biggest defeat the Warriors have suffered since June 1, 2024.

Meanwhile, Culver Community fought the good fight in their extra-innings matchup against Triton on Saturday but wound up with a less-than-desirable result. They fell just short of the Trojans by a score of 7-6. The Cavaliers haven't had much luck with the Trojans recently, as the team has come up short the last nine times they've met.

Hunter Albert was cooking despite his team's loss, going 4-for-5 with three RBI, two doubles, and one run.

North Miami's record is now 13-3. As for Culver Community, their record now sits at 3-10.

The pitchers for both teams better look sharp on Thursday as neither team is afraid to steal. North Miami has been swiping bases left and right this season, having averaged 4.4 stolen bases per game. However, it's not like Culver Community struggles in that department as they've been averaging an even more impressive 4.8 stolen bases. The only question left is which team can snag more.

Everything went North Miami's way against Culver Community when the teams last played back in April of 2021, as North Miami made off with a 39-4 victory. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Warriors since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
