EmiLee Brown, Morgan Beagle Lead Tigers Past Braymer

Worth County reversed another outcome against a team they had trouble with in recent years, beating Braymer 12-2 Thursday in a game that was delayed by rain, but then was played. The two teams had played some close games in recent years, but Braymer had always come out on top. But this year, it changed.

Braymer had every reason to expect a close game; they had beaten Stanberry and ended their 19-game GRC winning streak. Worth County had edged out Stanberry 4-3. But after Braymer took a 1-0 lead in the first, Worth County took control, scoring in every inning but the fourth to take the ten-run rule win.

The Tigers got 14 hits and won without the benefit of an extra base hit. Morgan Beagle and EmiLee Brown provided the big guns for the Tigers, getting three hits each. Megan Cassavaugh, Merrideth Spiers, and Jill Hardy all had two, while Hailey Adwell and Anna Gladstone each had one.

Braidy Hunt pitched and scattered six hits, striking out seven. Megan Cassavaugh threw a runner out stealing, and Hailey Adwell cut down a runner at the plate from the outfield. Anna Gladstone made two catches from first, while Allison Larison made one from second.
