Mallory Johnson was a major factor in Petal's win over Meridian on Thursday. Johnson made a splash, striking out six batters over six innings while giving up three earned (and one unearned) runs off four hits (and not a single walk). She played a big game the last time she faced Meridian back in March of 2024, so the team probably should've seen her coming.
Johnson and Petal will venture away from home to square off against Pearl at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday. The last time Johnson duked it out with the Pirates (two weeks ago), the Panthers came out on top by a score of 12-0. Will another strong game from Johnson be enough to do it again?
