The Northshore Panthers will challenge the Fisher Gators at 4:30 p.m. on Monday.
Northshore saw some tournament action on Saturday. They fell 9-5 to St. John. The Panthers have now taken an 'L' in back-to-back games.
For whatever reason, it's the away team that's had the advantage when Fisher and John Ehret meet (four straight games heading into this one) and that held true again on Friday. Fisher was the clear victor by a 20-9 margin over John Ehret. The Gators might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won eight matchups by ten runs or more this season.
Gabby St Ann was a major factor no matter where she played. She looked comfortable on the mound, striking out six batters over six innings while giving up just two earned (and seven unearned) runs off six hits. That's the most strikeouts she has posted over her last eight contests. She was even better at the plate, going 3-for-5 with two runs, one triple, and two RBI.
In other batting news, Jessie Schutt was incredible, going 4-for-5 with three runs, four RBI, and one triple. That's the most runs she has posted since back in February. Another player making a difference was Talyn Feicht, who went 3-for-5 with three runs, one triple, and two RBI.
Fisher kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 21 hits. That's the most hits they've managed all season.
Fisher is on a roll lately: they've won three of their last four games. That's provided a nice bump to their 9-7 record this season. A key ingredient in that success has been their performance when it comes to hits: they averaged an imposing 8.75 hits in those games compared to only 4.67 in the others. Northshore's defeat dropped their record down to 13-11.
