While Tuesday's win was certainly a team effort, someone pulling more than their own weight was underclassman Maylea Lutu. On Tuesday she was dialed in and scored three runs and stole a base while going 2-for-4. She played a big game the last time she faced Ridgeview, so the team probably should've seen her coming.
Lutu's strong effort led Independence over Ridgeview and she'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 4:00 p.m. on Thursday. Ridgeview is limping into the matchup having lost four straight at home. There's no doubt they're looking for a change of fortune, will Independence have enough to stop it? Check MaxPreps after the action for a full breakdown of the game and more softball content.
