Staples and Darien are an even 4-4 against one another since May of 2016, but likely not for long. The Wreckers will take on the Blue Wave at 4:00 p.m. on Monday. Staples is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 8.4 runs per game this season.
Staples managed to slip by Stamford the last time these teams faced off, but didn't have those same answers this time around. The Wreckers lost 10-4 to the Black Knights on Friday. Give some credit to the fans of both teams: the last six times they've met, the home team has come away the winner.
Ellie Stauder was cooking despite her team's loss, going 1-for-4 with one home run and two RBI. That home run was her first of the season. The team also got some help courtesy of Emillie Russell, who went 1-for-3 with one run and one double.
Meanwhile, Darien waltzed into their game on Friday with five straight wins... but they left with six. They never let the Cadets get on the board and left with a 4-0 victory.
Vivian Knott made a splash while hitting and pitching. She didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only one hit while striking out 14 over seven innings pitched. She has been consistent for a while: she hasn't given up more than two walks any time she's pitched this season. She was also big at the plate, going 2-for-3 with one RBI.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Bella McCarthy, who went 1-for-3 with one home run and three RBI.
Staples dropped their record down to 4-4 with the defeat, which was their fifth straight on the road dating back to last season. As for Darien, their record is now 9-1.
Both the two teams just can't seem to miss. Staples has been making plenty of contact this season, having averaged 9.1 hits per game. However, it's not like Darien struggles in that department as they've been averaging only 2.3 hits. With both teams so capable at the plate, fans should be ready for an impressive hitting performance.
Staples might still be hurting after the 10-3 loss they got from Darien in their previous matchup back in April of 2025. Can the Wreckers avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
