Williston's speedy runners might be the difference in Thursday's matchup. The Red Devils have been swiping bases left and right this season, having averaged 5.5 stolen bases per game.

Williston got the 'W' in their previous meeting back in February against Chiefland by a conclusive 11-5 score. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Red Devils since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
