Crowley is preparing for their first district matchup of the season on Thursday. They will venture away from home to square off against the Erath Bobcats at 4:00 p.m.
Crowley can't be too happy about their upcoming road matchup considering what happened when they opened their season away from home on Thursday. They lost 11-2 to Northside Christian. The Gent have struggled against the Warriors recently, as the game was their third consecutive lost matchup.
Meanwhile, it was a proper cat-fight when Erath challenged Hanson Memorial on Tuesday. The Bobcats blew past the Tigers 15-6. The victory continues a trend for the Bobcats in their matchups with the Tigers: they've now won three in a row.
Gretchen Theriot made a big impact while hitting and pitching. On the mound, she pitched two innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit. Theriot was also stellar in the batter's box, going 2-for-4 with two runs, one triple, and one stolen base.
In other batting news, Erath let Marlie Lopez and Kate Wilson run wild. Lopez went 1-for-2 with five RBI, two runs, and one triple, while Wilson went a perfect 3-for-3 with three runs, one stolen base, and one double. Another player making a difference was Maddie Guilbeaux, who went 1-for-2 with two runs, two RBI, and one double.
Erath was getting hits left and right and finished the game having posted a batting average of .480. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Hanson Memorial only posted a batting average of .200.
Crowley might still be hurting after the 15-3 defeat they got from Erath in their previous matchup back in March of 2024. Can the Gent avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
