Barlow is 8-2 against Gresham since May of 2018 and they'll have a chance to extend that dominance on Tuesday. The Bruins will host the Gophers at 6:30 p.m. Barlow is coming into the game hot, having won their last five games.
Barlow came out on top against Nelson on Friday thanks in part to the team's impressive four-run sixth inning. The Bruins took their matchup against Nelson 8-4.
Kaylee Pokorny 2025 spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered only one earned (and three unearned) runs on six hits. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than one earned run in four consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, Barlow let Pehtyn Hart 2026 and Alyssa McCormick 2028 run wild. Hart 2026 got on base in three of her four plate appearances with two stolen bases, two runs, and one double, while McCormick 2028 went 2-for-4 with three RBI, one stolen base, and one run. That's the most stolen bases Hart 2026 has posted since back in April. Sydney Trapp 2026 was another key player, going 2-for-4 with two stolen bases, one run, and one RBI.
They weren't the only ones making solid contact: Barlow kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 11 hits. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Nelson only managed six hits.
Meanwhile, Gresham unfortunately witnessed the end of their six-game winning streak on Friday. They came up short against Sandy, falling 14-3. For those keeping track at home, that's the biggest loss the Gophers have suffered since March 19th.
Gresham saw four different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Despina Seufalemua, who went 1-for-2 with one double and one RBI. Another was La Terra Foster-Frison, who got on base in two of her three plate appearances with one stolen base and one run.
Barlow's win was their third straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 16-8. The road victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 12.0 runs over those games. As for Gresham, their defeat dropped their record down to 17-7.
Barlow couldn't quite get it done against Gresham when the teams last played two weeks ago as they fell 7-2. Will the Bruins have more luck at home instead of on the road? Check MaxPreps after the match for a full breakdown of the game, commentary, and other softball content.
