4A Div. II

Brock 9-0 Liberty

* Asher Strait: 1-2, 3 RBI, BB

* Cade Vidal: 1-2, 3 RBI

* Jake Windle: 3-3, 2 R, 2 RBI

The Eagles scored all nine of their runs in the first two innings to go up 1-0 in the series Friday night. Canon Lightfood led off the bottom of the first with a double, followed by a Braxon Roberts hit by pitch.

With runners on, Evan O'Connor began the scoring spree with the first of three RBI singles in the frame. Asher Strait also brought in a run on a sacrifice fly.

After putting down the Patriots in order in the top of the second, Jake Windle pushed across another run on a single with the bases loaded. Strait gave Brock an 8-0 lead with a 2-run single immediately after.

Cade Vidal's sacrifice fly made it 9-0.

Despite multiple base runners and only two fewer hits than the Eagles, Liberty couldn't get runs in as Weston Pickard and Austin Gallogly split time on the mound. Pickard earned six strikeouts.

Game two at Abilene Christian University will take place Saturday at noon.

4A Div. I

Mineral Wells 2-1 West Plains [10 innings]

* Newt Schroeder: 8.1 IP, 7 H, R, 0 ER, 3 BB, K

* William Hollifield: 1.2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 2 K

* Cale Kirtley: Game-winning RBI

An RBI triple from Brogan Sims and West Plains' RBI single in the sixth left game one of Mineral Wells' series tied at one all the way until the bottom of the 10th inning.

Kord Henry led off the frame with a walk after going down 0-2 on the count. Braxton May's sacrifice bunt moved Henry to second before an intentional walk to Sims and a 4-pitch walk to Josh Petrie loaded the bases for Cale Kirtley.

On a 1-0 count, a hit by pitch to Kirtley drove in the walk-off run. At 23 wins, the Rams set a new single-season win record for the program.

Game two begins at 1 p.m. Saturday at Lubbock Cooper High School.
