The Casey-Westfield Warriors will face the Sesser-Valier/Waltonville Red Devils at 4:30 p.m. Monday, riding a 14-game winning streak into the playoff matchup.

Casey-Westfield advanced with a 1-0 shutout victory over Windsor/Stewardson-Strasburg on Friday. Despite scoring their fewest runs of the season, the Warriors’ dominant pitching performance secured the win in the high-stakes playoff game.

Ava Goble delivered a stellar two-way performance for Casey-Westfield. On the mound, she pitched 10 innings without allowing an earned run, extending her remarkable consistency — she hasn’t issued more than two walks in 17 consecutive appearances. At the plate, Goble went 1-for-5 with a home run.

The victory improved Casey-Westfield’s record to 33-3, while Windsor/Stewardson-Strasburg fell to 26-7.

Meanwhile, Sesser-Valier/Waltonville opened their season with a convincing 9-1 victory over Elverado on Saturday, improving to 1-0.

The Warriors hold a historical advantage in the matchup, having defeated the Red Devils 16-3 in their most recent meeting in April 2018. Casey-Westfield will look to continue their winning ways against a Red Devils team beginning their playoff run.
