The Brown County Eagles will head out to challenge the New Washington Mustangs at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday.
Brown County fought the good fight in their extra-innings matchup against Morristown on Thursday but wound up with a less-than-desirable result. They fell just short of the Yellow Jackets by a score of 7-6.
Cami Keaton spent all 8.1 innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered only one earned (and six unearned) runs on 11 hits and racked up ten Ks.
At the plate, Maelyn Bowling was cooking despite her team's loss, going 3-for-4 with one home run, three RBI, and two doubles. Another player making a difference was Grace Frye, who went 2-for-3 with two runs, one triple, and one stolen base.
New Washington not only won on Tuesday, but they posted their biggest win since April 16, 2025 (when they won 16-6). Everything went their way against Southwestern as they made off with a 13-3 victory. Give some credit to the fans of both teams: the last four times they've met, the home team has come away the winner.
Brown County got the 'W' in their previous meeting back in May of 2024 against New Washington by a conclusive 16-3 score. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Eagles since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
