Independence had to settle for second on Tuesday, but Emma Stringer sure wasn't going down easily. Stringer was unstoppable, pitching eight innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off four hits. She has been nothing but reliable on the mound: she hasn't given up more than two walks in ten consecutive appearances.
Even though Stringer couldn't lead Independence over Briar Woods, she won't have to wait long to try again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday. Despite Stringer's best efforts to the contrary, Independence will head into their next match having dropped four straight games. Will Thursday be the turning point? Check MaxPreps after the action for a full breakdown of the game and more softball content.
