The Cedar Ridge Fighting Red Wolves are taking a road trip to challenge the Eastern Alamance Eagles at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Both come into the match bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
On Friday, Cedar Ridge earned a 5-1 victory over Person. The win made it back-to-back victories for the Fighting Red Wolves.
Meanwhile, Eastern Alamance made easy work of Page on Wednesday and carried off a 10-3 win. Considering the Eagles have won three games by more than six runs this season, Wednesday's blowout was nothing new.
The team relied heavily on Jarrett Newell, who went 3-for-5 with four RBI, two runs, and one double. That's the most RBI he has posted since back in May of 2024. Another player making a difference was Braxton Ballard, who scored a run and stole a base while going 4-for-5.
Newell wasn't the only one working in the hit department: Eastern Alamance kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 12 hits. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Page only managed five hits.
Eastern Alamance is on a roll lately: they've won three of their last four contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 5-4 record this season. A key ingredient in that success has been their performance when it comes to hits: they averaged an imposing ten hits in those games compared to only 4.2 in the others. Cedar Ridge's victory bumped their record up to 5-6.
Cedar Ridge took their win against Eastern Alamance in their previous matchup back in April of 2024 by a conclusive 12-6. Will Cedar Ridge repeat their success, or does Eastern Alamance has a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
