Northwest extended their losing streak to four on Thursday, dropping them down to 7-12. They fell 6-3 to the Fox Warriors. The Lions were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Warriors apparently hadn't forgotten their defeat the last time these teams played back in October of 2024.
Northwest saw five different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Adeline Paszkiewicz, who went 1-for-3 with one run and one double.
As for Fox, they are on a roll lately: they've won seven of their last eight matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 9-4 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 8.9 runs over those games.
On Fox's side, Avery McKinnon spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered just two earned (and one unearned) runs on nine hits and racked up nine Ks. McKinnon has been consistent recently: she hasn't given up more than two walks in three consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Makenna Johnson, who went 3-for-4 with two runs and two doubles. Alyssa Twitchel also deserves some recognition as she scored her first run of the season.
Coincidentally, Northwest and Fox will both be playing Parkway West the next time they take the field. The Warriors will head out to face the Longhorns at 4:15 p.m. on Friday, while the Lions will host them at 4:30 p.m. on Monday.
