Bexlie Busby continued where she left off at lower levels, crushing a home run to dead center field in Northeast Nodaway's U14 11-1 win over Hopkins Thursday. Audrie Villegas and Ellie Jackson combined on a no-hitter to shut down the Mustangs.
The first-game jitters got to Villegas at first as she hit a batter to force in a run in the Mustang first, but she got out of the inning with a called strikeout to limit the damage.
Maddie Faustlin started off the Bluejay first by crushing a triple to left and coming home when the cutoff throw got away to tie it at 1-1. North Nodaway should have been out of the inning, but after Audrie Villegas reached on an error to keep it alive, Bexlie Busby crushed her shot to give the Bluejays the lead for good. Kylie Yost stole second and came around on a throwing error to make it 4-1.
After Villegas got out of the second with a pair of called strikeouts, Khloe Burns crushed a shot down the right field line that sliced away from everyone for a triple and she came home on a wild pitch. Jordann Doty walked and Maddie Faustlin laid down a perfect bunt down the third base line. A wild pitch and a throwing error scored Doty and put Faustlin on third and another wild pitch scored Faustlin to make it 7-1. Eryn O'Connell walked, Kinsley Yost reached on an error, and Audrie Villegas doubled them home to make it 9-1. Bexlie Busby singled Villegas to third and they pulled off a successful double steal of second and home to make it 10-1. Everything went right for the Bluejays in that inning, except umpire Baylie Busby calling her own sister out at the plate. Kiley Yost scored on a wild pitch to cap off the rally.
Ellie Jackson came on and worked two scoreless innings to preserve the win for the Bluejays.
