The Scott Eagles ended our Mustangs’ season in dramatic fashion, with a walk-off single in the bottom of the seventh that started with a Ty Cook walk, followed by a stolen base when Andy Reed singled to leftfield to win the game and punch their ticket to Tuesday’s District Final versus Campbell County, who run-ruled Calvary Christian 15-0 in the Monday nitecap.

The pitchers battle extended through three complete scoreless innings before Brossart drew first blood in the fourth when Ben Doyle reached on an error and scored on a Derek Bezold double.  The Eagles answered in the bottom of the fourth by doubling, and delivering two singles.  Brossart re-took the lead in the top of the fifth when we loaded the bases with a pair of walks and a single followed by a Ben Doyle single that scored the lead runner putting the Mustangs up 2-1.  Scott tied it up in the bottom of the sixth on a single and a double.  The Mustangs came up empty in the top of the seventh, setting up the Scott win when the lead-off hitter worked a base on balls, stole second and advanced to third on a groud out.  We walked the next two batters intentionally, setting up a possible double-play, but was thwarted with the game-winner, a single to left field by Anderson Reed.  Three Eagles had multiple hits – Anderson Reed had two hits including a double and an RBI.  Eli Smith also had a pair of hits including a double and an RBI, and Hunter Alllison contributed a pair of singles.  Ben Doyle was 2 for 4 for Brossart with a run scored and an RBI.  Kasey Moeller was 2 for 3 with a run scored.  Kasey Moeller and Derek Bezold had doubles.

Both pitchers, Trey Cook for Scott and Luke Neltner for Brossart went the distance.  Cook allowed 2 runs, 5 hits, struck out 12 and walked 6.  Neltner answered by giving up 3 runs, 8 hits, striking out 2, and walking 7.

The loss drops the curtain on a 17-20 season and the high school careers of Isaac Amin, Ben Doyle, Carter Boruske, Karter Boruske, Landon Ruth, and Will Wyrick.
