Blackman kicked off their season on the road on Friday and hit a couple of potholes. They fell just short of the Eagleville Eagles by a score of 11-10. The Blaze were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Eagles apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played back in March of 2024.
Alyssa Barber made the most of her time at bat despite the final result and got on base in three of her four plate appearances with one home run, four RBI, and two runs. That's the most RBI she has posted since back in March of 2024. The team also got some help courtesy of Sophia Compton, who scored two runs while going 3-for-3.
The victory made it two in a row for Eagleville and bumps their season record up to a perfect 2-0.
Coming up, Blackman will square off against Riverdale at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday. This will be Riverdale's first chance to prove their worth in the conference. Eagleville has already played their next matchup (against Cascade), but no score has been uploaded at the time of writing.
