While it always takes a team to win, one person punching above their weight class on Friday was Hayden Monan. She wasn't messing around, not allowing a single earned run over five innings pitched. The pitching appearance was her third straight with one or fewer earned runs.
Coming up, Monan and Hutsonville/Palestine will look to defend their home field on Tuesday against Casey-Westfield at 4:30 p.m. The Tigers will be headed into this one with a sizable disadvantage in the rankings (they're ranked 246 places lower in Illinois), but they're not letting that get them down. Will they be able to pull off an upset behind Monan? Come back here after the game to get an analysis of the match and other softball content.
