The Prairie Falcons are packing up and heading out on the road for their first away game this season: they will challenge the Mark Morris Monarchs at 4:00 p.m. on Monday. The two teams are strolling into their games after big wins in their previous games.
Prairie is headed out to face Mark Morris after opening their season at home and giving their fans just what they were looking for. Prairie put the hurt on Hudson's Bay with a sharp 22-2 victory on Tuesday. The win continues a trend for the Falcons in their matchups with the Eagles: they've now won seven in a row.
Payton Miller made a big impact while hitting and pitching. She tossed two innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. Those zero hits allowed gave her a new career-low. She was also solid in the batter's box, scoring a run while getting on base in all three of her plate appearances.

Prairie came out on top in a nail-biter against Mark Morris in their previous matchup back in April of 2022, sneaking past 4-2. The rematch might be a little tougher for Prairie since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
