The Lincoln Lancers will head out on the road to take on the Poudre Impalas at 6:00 p.m. on Friday. Given that both teams suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this match.
Lincoln couldn't capitalize on their home-field advantage in their season opener. Their rough 13-2 defeat to Far Northeast W on Wednesday might stick with them for a while. The loss unfortunately continues a disappointing trend for Lincoln in their matchups with Far Northeast W: they've now lost five in a row.
Meanwhile, it was a hard-fought contest, but Poudre had to settle for a 4-3 defeat against Resurrection Christian on Thursday.
Poudre got a good showing from Jack Prenni, who tossed three innings while giving up just one earned run off one hit.
On the hitting side, Ryder Pitts was cooking despite his team's loss, going 3-for-3 with an RBI.
Even though they lost, Poudre didn't let batters stay on the plate for long and finished the game with ten strikeouts. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Resurrection Christian only tossed six.
Lincoln might still be hurting after the 7-0 loss they got from Poudre in their previous meeting back in March of 2023. Can Lincoln avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
