Martins Ferry found a leader in Maddie Lucas as the squad took down Wheeling Central Catholic on Monday. Lucas was dynamite, not allowing a single earned run and allowing only two hits while striking out seven over seven innings pitched. She has been nothing but reliable on the mound: she hasn't given up more than two walks in seven consecutive appearances.
Coming up, Lucas and Martins Ferry will be playing at home against Claymont at 5:00 p.m. on the 14th. Thanks in part to Lucas' efforts, the Purple Riders will roll in on a three-game winning streak. Will Lucas and the rest of the team keep the streak alive? Check MaxPreps after the action for a full breakdown of the game and more softball content.
