Boyd was sadly handed a loss on Wednesday, but Abby Atkinson did her best to prevent it. Atkinson turned in nothing short of a gem, keeping things locked down with no earned runs or hits while striking out seven over 6.1 innings pitched. She has been consistent: she hasn't given up more than two hits in six consecutive appearances.
Even though Atkinson couldn't lead Boyd over S & S Consolidated, she won't have to wait long to try again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. Sadly, Atkinson's big day wasn't enough to stop the loss, which snapped the Yellowjackets' 11-game streak of wins at home. With the streak broken, Atkinson and the Yellowjackets surely have a bit of extra motivation heading into Thursday's match. Come back here after the game to get an analysis of the match and other softball content.
