The Sumner Academy Sabres will be playing at home against the Atchison Phoenix at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday.
Sumner Academy was not able to secure the win in their season-opener on Thursday. They and Leavenworth finished up on equal footing with a 0-0 draw.
Meanwhile, Atchison put another one in the bag on Thursday to keep their perfect season alive. They had just enough and edged Bishop Ward out 7-5.
Makenzie Weedon-Jacobs was a major factor while hitting and pitching. She struck out seven batters over seven innings while giving up just one earned (and four unearned) runs off five hits. Weedon-Jacobs was also solid in the batter's box, scoring two runs and stealing a base while going 2-for-4. She is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as she's now stolen at least one in the last three games she's played.
In other batting news, Presley Simpson was incredible, going 3-for-4 with a home run, three RBI, and two runs. Jadyn Boldridge was another key contributor, getting on base in three of her four plate appearances with a stolen base and a double.
Sumner Academy might still be hurting after the 21-3 defeat they got from Atchison in their previous meeting back in May of 2023. Can Sumner Academy avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
