Gilbert Christian will be headed into this one with a pretty big disadvantage in the rankings (they're ranked 143 places lower in Arizona), but they're not letting that get them down. Will they be able to pull off an upset behind Whitehurst? Come back here after the game to get an analysis of the match and other softball content.
