Plano is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they&#8217;ve averaged 6.8  runs per game  this season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:2\">Plano easily dispatched McKinney Boyd on Wednesday, but unfortunately both the margin and the ultimate result were a different story in this one. The Wildcats fell just short of Plano East by a score of  8-6 on Friday. The  loss   continues a  trend for the Wildcats in their meetings with the Panthers: they&#8217;ve now lost six in a row.<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:3\"> <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.maxpreps.com\/tx\/plano\/plano-wildcats\/athletes\/cadence-charland\/?careerid=fi6q1627mvlsc\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"> Cadence Charland<\/a> was cooking despite her team&#8217;s loss,   going 2-for-3 with one  home run, three  RBI,  and two  runs. She is  on a roll when it comes to  RBI, as she&#8217;s  now  brought in three or more in each of the last three games she&#8217;s  played. The team also got some help courtesy of <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.maxpreps.com\/tx\/plano\/plano-wildcats\/athletes\/aubrey-zhang\/?careerid=cuo2k5oum3rn7\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"> Aubrey Zhang<\/a>, who  went a perfect 3-for-3 with two  runs, one  triple,  and two  RBI.<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:4\">Meanwhile, Rock Hill hadn&#8217;t done well against Plano East recently (they were 0-3 in their previous three matchups), but they didn&#8217;t let the past get in their way  on Wednesday. The Blue Hawks were the clear victors by  a  6-0 margin over the Panthers. The result was nothing new for the Blue Hawks, who have now won eight games by six  runs or more  so far this season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:5\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.maxpreps.com\/tx\/frisco\/rock-hill-blue-hawks\/athletes\/madilynn-grossman\/?careerid=t45iln1eoci33\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"> Madilynn Grossman<\/a> made a big impact while hitting and pitching. She looked comfortable on the mound,   not allowing a single  earned run and  allowing only two  hits while striking out seven over seven innings pitched. Grossman was also solid in the batter&#8217;s box,  getting on base  in two of her four plate appearances with two  stolen bases, one  run,  and one  RBI.<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:6\"> In other batting news,  the team  relied heavily on <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.maxpreps.com\/tx\/frisco\/rock-hill-blue-hawks\/athletes\/ali-sanchez\/?careerid=igqpn3du28vtd\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"> Ali Sanchez<\/a>, who  went 1-for-3 with two  runs, one  stolen base,  and one  double. <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.maxpreps.com\/tx\/frisco\/rock-hill-blue-hawks\/athletes\/madelyn-kerrigan\/?careerid=6b1cfgih10gaa\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"> Madelyn Kerrigan<\/a> was another key player,  going 1-for-3 with two  RBI.<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:7\"> Rock Hill&#8217;s record is now 9-11. As for Plano, their defeat dropped their record down to 14-12-1.<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:8\">Fans could be in store for some top-tier slugging  on Tuesday. Plano hasn&#8217;t had any problems when it comes to power this season,  having  averaged 1.1  home runs per game. However, it&#8217;s not like Rock Hill struggles in that department as   they&#8217;ve been averaging  an even more impressive 0.4  home runs. With so much power on both teams, it&#8217;ll be down to the pitchers to keep the mound locked down.<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:9\"> Plano came out on top in a nail-biter against Rock Hill when the teams last played  back in March, sneaking past  7-6. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Wildcats since the  team won&#8217;t have the home-field advantage this time around. We&#8217;ll see if the change in venue makes a difference.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Wildcats 04\/10\/26 vs Plano East604\/08\/26 @ McKinney Boyd1204\/02\/26 vs Prosper503\/31\/26 @ Plano West103\/27\/26 vs Princeton14+ 22 more games&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":246328,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[160,162,161],"class_list":{"0":"post-246327","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-plano","8":"tag-plano","9":"tag-plano-headlines","10":"tag-plano-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/246327","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=246327"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/246327\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/246328"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=246327"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=246327"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=246327"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
