The Legacy Christian Academy Lions will head out on the road to square off against the Alpaugh Buffalos at 4:15 p.m. on Tuesday. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, the two teams will really light up the scoreboard.
Legacy Christian Academy easily dispatched Wonderful College Prep Academy on Tuesday, but unfortunately both the margin and the ultimate result were a different story in this one. Legacy Christian Academy fell just short of Laton by a score of 22-20 on Friday. The Lions haven't had much luck with the Mustangs recently, as the team has come up short the last three times they've met.
Josie Johnson led a balanced group of hitters, scoring three runs and stealing a base while getting on base in four of her five plate appearances. Another player making a difference was Faith Ghilarducci, who scored four runs while going 3-for-4.
Even though they lost, Legacy Christian Academy always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .643. That was just more of the same: they've now posted an OBP of .556 or higher every time they've taken the field this season.
Meanwhile, there's no place like home for Alpaugh, who bounced back after a loss on the road on Saturday. They were the clear victors by a 26-6 margin over Wonderful College Prep Academy on Friday. The result was nothing new for the Buffalos, who have now won four matches by ten runs or more so far this season.
Alpaugh has been performing well recently as they've won three of their last four contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 4-2 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 14.8 runs over those games. Legacy Christian Academy now has a losing record of 1-2.
