Lincolnview has won five straight games at home, while Bryan has won five straight on the road, but those streaks won't matter much on Thursday. The Lancers will host the Golden Bears at 5:00 p.m. The two teams each escaped (but just barely!) with wins against their previous opponents.
Lincolnview proved they can win big on Saturday (they won by six) and on Monday they proved they can win the close ones too. They sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 10-9 victory over Paulding.
Meanwhile, Bryan owes their pitching crew a big pat on the back after their performance on Thursday. They skirted past Otsego 2-0.
Otsego's batters probably weren't too happy with Thea Staten, who pitched a no hitter and racked up 17 Ks (she gave up a single walk). Staten has been nothing but reliable on the mound: she hasn't tossed less than ten strikeouts in 15 consecutive appearances.
At the plate, Bryan saw five different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Emma Slagel, who went 1-for-2 with one stolen base.
Lincolnview is on a roll lately: they've won 12 of their last 13 matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 21-3 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.6 runs on average over those games. As for Bryan, their victory bumped their record up to 13-4.
