The Eunice Bobcats are taking a road trip to challenge the Jennings Bulldogs at 6:00 p.m. on Friday. Jennings took a loss in their last matchup and will be looking to turn the tables on Eunice, who comes in off a win.
Eunice took a loss when they played away from home last Wednesday, but their home fans gave them all the motivation they needed on Tuesday. They put the hurt on Leesville with a sharp 12-6 win. Considering the Bobcats have won 13 games by more than five runs this season, Tuesday's blowout was nothing new.
Meanwhile, Jennings didn't have quite enough to beat Acadiana on Thursday and fell 2-1. The Bulldogs have now taken an 'L' in back-to-back games.
Jenna Morvant spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered two runs (both of which were unearned) on seven hits. She has been consistent for a while: she hasn't given up more than two walks in 11 consecutive appearances.
At the plate, Jennings saw three different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Kylie Price, who went 1-for-3 with one triple and one run. That triple was Price's first of the season.
Eunice has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won seven of their last eight contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 14-6 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 14.1 runs over those games. As for Jennings, their loss dropped their record down to 12-9.
Eunice skirted past Jennings 12-10 in their previous meeting back in February of 2024. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Bobcats since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
