Two teams were on the hunt for playoff glory, but only Pisgah walked away with it. They walked away with a 7-4 victory over the Central Cabarrus Vikings on Tuesday. That result was just more of the same for these two, as the Bears also won the last time the pair played back in May of 2024.
Sadie Messer spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered just two earned (and two unearned) runs on six hits and racked up seven Ks. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than two walks in nine consecutive appearances.
