West Davidson is a perfect 10-0 against South Davidson since March of 2017 and they'll have a chance to extend that dominance on Friday. West Davidson will head out to challenge South Davidson at 6:00 p.m. The two teams are sauntering into the matchup backed by comfortable wins in their prior games.
West Davidson is headed in fresh off scoring the most runs they have all season. Everything went their way against Salisbury on Wednesday as West Davidson made off with a 22-1 win. Perhaps unsurprisingly given the team's high-flying offense, the game also marked the team's biggest victory of the season.
Mahala Darnell and Hannah Rollins were a major factor no matter where they played. Throwing, Darnell pitched two innings while giving up no earned runs off two hits. Meanwhile, Rollins tossed two innings while giving up just one earned run but no hits. What's more, she gave up only one walk, the fewest she's had since back in May of 2024. At bat, Darnell went 2-for-4 with two triples, two runs, and two RBI, while Rollins went 3-for-4 with one home run, three runs, and four RBI. Rollins also put up a triple, which was her first of the season.
