Lakewood hasn't had much luck against Lynden recently, but that could start to change on Thursday. A feisty cat fight will be fought as Lakewood Cougars take on Lynden Lions at 4:00 p.m. Lakewood is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 11 runs per game this season.
On Tuesday, Lakewood was able to grind out a solid victory over Ferndale, taking the game 12-8. The Cougars haven't had any issues with the Golden Eagles recently, as the game was their seventh consecutive win against them.
Katie Krueger was a major factor while hitting and pitching. She looked comfortable on the mound, striking out eight batters over six innings while giving up three earned (and five unearned) runs off five hits (and only one walk). Those hits were her first of the season. She was also solid in the batter's box, scoring two runs while going 2-for-4.
In other batting news, Cassidy Wolfe was a standout: she scored two runs while going 1-for-4. She also put up a double, which was her first of the season. Karly Stewart was another key player, scoring a run while getting on base in all four of her plate appearances.
Lakewood kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 13 hits. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Ferndale only managed five hits.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Lynden). They came out on top in a nail-biter against Oak Harbor on Tuesday, sneaking past 5-3.
Lynden's record is now 2-4. As for Lakewood, the victory got them back to even at 2-2.
Lakewood couldn't quite finish off Lynden in their previous matchup back in May of 2022 and fell 15-13. Can Lakewood avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
