The East Granby Crusaders will challenge the East Catholic Eagles at 3:45 p.m. on Thursday. The two teams each escaped (but just barely!) with wins against their previous opponents.
While East Granby's victory against Bolton wasn't quite the blowout it was the last time the pair played, they still came out on top. The Crusaders sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 9-7 win over the Bulldogs on Friday. The victory continues a trend for the Crusaders in their matchups with the Bulldogs: they've now won nine in a row.
Meanwhile, East Catholic is still undefeated this season after their matchup against Coventry on Tuesday, but Coventry came as close as anyone has to beating them. The Eagles came within a single run of losing the streak, but they secured a 3-2 W against the Patriots. While the Eagles didn't have the best season last year (they finished 8-15), it's starting to look like those struggles are a thing of the past.
