The LaFayette Ramblers are packing up and heading out on the road for their first away game of the season: they will challenge the Dade County Wolverines at 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday. Dade County took a loss in their last matchup and will be looking to turn the tables on LaFayette, who comes in off a win.
LaFayette is headed out to face Dade County after opening their season at home and giving their fans just what they were looking for. The Ramblers put the hurt on Lakeview-Fort Oglethorpe with a sharp 10-1 win on Friday. The victory continues a trend for the Ramblers in their matchups with the Warriors: they've now won seven in a row.
Harley Perkins and Emma Parker did most of the damage at the plate: Perkins went 1-for-3 with two runs and one stolen base, while Parker went 1-for-3 with two runs and two RBI. Those two runs gave Parker a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Addi Hogue, who went 2-for-3 with two RBI and one run.
Meanwhile, Dade County fought the good fight in their extra-innings contest against Ridgeland on Saturday but wound up with a less-than-desirable result. They fell just short of the Panthers by a score of 4-2.
Everything went LaFayette's way against Dade County in their previous matchup back in August of 2024, as LaFayette made off with an 11-3 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Ramblers since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
