Subway Field, Stonebridge: The Wolves trek all the way across the UPCL map to welcome the Defenders, with this game leaving one team ahead of the other, guaranteed.

Debby made one big backhand save on her turn for the Defenders, but couldn't corral the next ball and took 563 to extend their lead.

Volkswagen Stadium, Viewpoint Sound: The Meteors wrap up their four-game home stand against the defending champions. Patches was too slow to readjust herself after selling out for a hit, and ended on 341 for Boston to lead things off. Mams picked up 177 in response for Viewpoint Sound, a mild effort from the captain. Puff II had a well-paced attack going but swung at a bad angle and fell with 147, destabilizing the Swifts lead. Hoot had a few bounces go favorably, but not enough, as his 138 saw the Meteors slip slightly farther behind at the halfway mark. Gradley continued his steady contributions in the middle of Boston's lineup, adding 503 this time to pad the lead significantly. Nibbles never totally recovered from a blazing offering he managed to stop, settling in at a low pace and taking 207 for Viewpoint Sound as they'll need a big comeback. Sweetheart made it all the tougher, as her crisp 611 provided the Swifts more veteran stability as they finished with 1602.

Nissan Infinity Stadium, Infinity: The Torpedoes continue their first home stand with the hopes of staying undefeated against the expansion Nighthawks, who play the third of ten straight road games.

Mr. Snowman completed the collapse for the Torpedoes, ramping a ball straight into his wicket to give himself 56 and his team a final of 1508. North Modernistic escaped danger with a win to go to 2-1, while Infinity is at 4-1.
Kraft Crowns Park, Royal: These two teams have played few games so far, making for a fairly uncertain meeting. Princess looked more composed than she has all season in this game, working her way to 584 for Tysini to establish a big first attack. Nightfur's poor start continued with only 30 for Royal this time. Leandra piled on with another 719 for the Hummingbirds, boosting their lead quite well in the early parts of the game. Jake batted 423 for the Crowns on his turn, giving them a more respectable output. Charli faltered a bit with 229 for Tysini, but they are still far ahead in the game. Kayla collected 624 for Royal, cutting deeply into the deficit before the final players take their turns for each team. Brownie's 171 for the Hummingbirds brought the team to a total of 1703, which should be enough to win.

Tysini is 1-2 on the year as they conclude their first road trip, while Royal is down to 1-1.
Samsung Whitewater Stadium, Whitewater: The Shores end their first home stand against the traveling Arrows.

Twinkie III couldn't get much back with 290 for the Shores, as they currently trail heavily. Ruby kept the good times going for Archtown, cranking out 611 on her turn to extend the lead again. Marsell did practically nothing for Whitewater, adding a measly 25 to their score. Dusky had only 149 for the Arrows, but it should be plenty as they finish with 1961 in total, a likely victory. Shaggy was forced into a backhand flick for the Shores, which failed, and they lost as her 359 put the team at 1037. The Arrows are now 3-3 after the impressive win, sending the Shores down to 1-2.
Apple Park, Todavía: Out on the coast, the Sharks seek their first win against a Stills team primed to face fatigue throughout the week.

Taylor improved for the Sharks, slicing her way to 360 to regain at least a temporary lead.

Diamond gets another win to move to 2-3 overall, while Viewpoint Sound slips to 2-6, a poor but busy start to the season.
Apple Park, Todavía: The Sharpshooters venture on the road for the first time, opposing the Stills in the third of their four-game home stand. Chris got caught on an early swing as the last offering he touched came in slow and he sent it out of play, giving Capital City a small 131 to lead off with. Easter answered with 353 for Todavía, only stopping due to an odd bounce that ended her turn abruptly. Missy faltered at 209 for the Sharpshooters, failing to cover the deficit as the game has become that much harder for the visitors. Sierra got caught up with a bounce and knocked a ball backward out of play, ending on 228 for the Stills as their lead remains marginal at best. Sprinkles set a much different tone with 742 for Capital City, giving them the lead in confident form with her excellent appearance. Sparkles picked a bad time for her worst game of the year, hitting a meager 128 as Todavía's fatigue appears to be setting in.

Todavía is up to 4-4 on the year, while Capital City's first game away from home knocked them back to 3-2.
Henry Ford Memorial Field, Pronger: The segment ends in the Eastern Hills, with both teams look to jockey along the even mark. Sally continued a fairly even start to the season, batting 469 for Archtown to get the game going. Precious put Pronger just slightly in the lead early on with her 480 for the hosts. Sleepy B. had a major misstep to end her turn at 162 for the Arrows, leaving them vulnerable. Zach stepped up with 490 for the Tridents in this game, boosting their lead at the halfway point. Ruby scooped only 240 for Archtown on her turn, putting the visitors in quite the hole late in the game. Spot looked like a star in his performance for Pronger, ripping 1190 to cement their lead in all reality. Dusky went on a tear to try to get the Arrows back in the game, hauling in 879 to put them at 1750 in what remained a loss. Potter tacked on 439 more for the Tridents, giving them 2599 in the confident win. Pronger has exploded for points to get to 2-1, while Archtown's down to 3-4 for the season.
That's part 1 of the week. I'm hoping to gain some consistency with this going forward, but I can't make any promises yet.
