Sprint Pitch, Victoria: The Spurs begin their doubleheader with a Southwestern Derby against the Prestige. Nicole rests for the visitors, while Yekaterina rests for the hosts.

Kayla set the tone with 627 for Royal, giving them a hefty haul early in the game. Acorn couldn't bring himself to that level for Lighton, falling with a mediocre 271 on the first turn for the hosts, who trail from the start. Jake got beat on a deflection that just eluded his bat, ending his turn at 333 for the Crowns.
