The St. John's Mavericks will be taking part in a tournament against the New Braunfels Unicorns at 11:30 a.m. on Friday. The two teams are strolling into their games after big wins in their previous games.
St. John's took care of business in their home opener (and then some) last Thursday. They put the hurt on Incarnate Word Academy with a sharp 12-3 win.
Meanwhile, New Braunfels had already won two in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 5 runs) and they went ahead and made it three on Thursday. They were the clear victor by a 9-1 margin over the Pirates. Considering the Unicorns have won three matches by more than five runs this season, Thursday's blowout was nothing new.
New Braunfels got a massive performance out of Isabel Cruz, who went 2-for-3 with one home run, three RBI, and two runs. Haley Salas was another key player, going 2-for-3 with one home run, two runs, and two RBI.
Cruz wasn't the only one working in the home run department: New Braunfels lost a few balls and finished the game with three home runs. That's the most home runs they've posted since back in March of 2024.
