Wasilla and Colony are an even 5-5 against one another since May of 2022, but likely not for long. The Warriors will challenge the Knights at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday. Wasilla has given up an average of 7.1 runs per game this season, but Thursday's game will give them a chance to turn things around.
Wasilla is coming in fresh off a high-stakes matchup with another one of Alaska's top teams: South Anchorage, who was ranked first at the time (Wasilla was ranked sixth). The Warriors came up short against the Wolverines on Monday, falling 14-2. The home team had taken home the W every time these teams have met since May 16, 2023, but that streak is no more.
Wasilla saw two different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was LaLo PaLomares, who went 1-for-3 with one run and one double.
Meanwhile, Colony had already won four in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 8.5 runs) and they went ahead and made it five on Wednesday. They had just enough and edged out the Mustangs 5-3. For those keeping track at home, that's the closest win the Knights have posted since April 9th.
The team relied heavily on Boman Marks, who got on base in three of his four plate appearances with one stolen base and one run. The team also got some help courtesy of Hayden Sherman, who went 1-for-3 with one run and one RBI.
Colony's victory was their third straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 6-3. The road wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.7 runs on average over those games. As for Wasilla, their defeat ended a four-game streak of wins at home and dropped them to 10-4-1.
Wasilla might still be hurting after the 12-5 loss they got from Colony in their previous meeting back in May of 2024. Can the Warriors avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
