Owls post 13th win

Noah Wahl hit his team-leading fourth home run, a 3-run blast, in the sixth.

Chad Moore also had two hits each.

The Owls pounded out 12 hits, and coach Bob Bowman said he was glad to see the Seymour bats come to life after his team was shut out Monday night.

He said, "Twelve hits in six innings is pretty good. We played good defense again. We made one error. We made some good plays in the infield."

Reagan Eakins picked up the win as he allowed four hits, struck out five and walked one. "(Eakins) kept them off stride the whole game. They got a couple of hits in the (fifth) inning when they scored, but other than that he kind of held them at bay."

The Owls are 13-7 and will play host to New Albany at 6 p.m. today in the loser's bracket of the Hoosier Hills tournament. The Owls and Bulldogs split a double header earlier.

"I'm pleased with our defense. We played a lot better than we did against Salem (7 errors) Saturday.

"The top of the order hit the ball. Our one through four hitters had six hits.

Cougars beaten

HOPE -Hauser broke a 1-1 tie with three runs in the third, then added seven runs in its next two at bats to roll past Trinity.

"The girls played another very good game," coach Bob Hiser said. "Our pitcher, Erica (Price) had a good night pitching. She had five strikeouts and only walked three. Our fielding was also very good. The girls were making good plays and good decisions out there tonight.

"Our batting was the problem. We left nine runners on base. I told the girls to keep working hard in practice and in the games, and things will come together for us."

The Cougars did not have a hit as they fell  to 0-15 and will be home Thursday to West Washington.
