CFCA improved to 9-7 going into a nonconference game at Lee Christian on Thursday at 4 p.m. Riverside is 13-3 with a pair of losses to the Eagles. CFCA took an 11-10 road win over the Royals on April 8.

Reliever Rhyleigh Horne recorded a game-ending strikeout with the potential tying run at third on Tuesday. Horne had five strikeouts in the last two innings.
