For whatever reason, it's the away team that's had the advantage when Belvidere and North Boone meet (three straight games heading into this one) and that held true again on Saturday. The Buccaneers fell 4-1 to the Vikings. The Buccaneers were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Vikings apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played back in April of 2025.
Peyton Manring spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered just two earned (and two unearned) runs on nine hits.
On the hitting side, Belvidere saw two different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Sam Bohlken, who went a perfect 2-for-2 with one double.
Belvidere now has a losing record of 5-6. As for North Boone, the win made it two in a row for them and bumps their season record up to 8-2.
The teams didn't have to wait long for a rematch: the Vikings beat Belvidere by a score of 9-0 later that day.
