Wheeler hasn't had much luck against Booneville recently, but that could start to change on Thursday. The Eagles will square off against the Blue Devils at 5:00 p.m. The two teams each escaped (but just barely!) with wins against their previous opponents.
Wheeler let Saltillo stack five runs on them in the seventh inning on Tuesday but luckily Wheeler prevailed anyway. The Eagles narrowly escaped with a victory as the squad sidled past the Tigers 10-8.
Marli Kate Shockley spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered three earned (and five unearned) runs on ten hits and racked up 11 Ks.
At the plate, Savannah Hancock was incredible, going 2-for-4 with three runs, one triple, and one double. That's the most hits she has posted since back in April of 2025. Another player making a difference was Kinsley Williams, who went 3-for-4 with two RBI and one run.
Meanwhile, it may have taken eight innings to finish the job, but Booneville ultimately got the result they hoped for on Tuesday. They won by a run and slipped past Corinth 3-2. The three-run effort marked the Blue Devils' lowest-scoring matchup of the season, but in the end it didn't matter.
