Head coach Jason Ogden and his squad dropped a 4-3, nine-inning effort in Bluegrass Conference play on Thursday to Lamoni in the morning.

The Eagles then turned around to play Diagonal at night on the same day and topped the Bluegrass squad 8-1.

“It’s hard on the kids to play two games in a day. I’m proud of the kids — we’re battlin’,” said Ogden.

Madison Probasco earned the win versus Diagonal. She fanned 10 and allowed zero earned.

Kaylee Stansberry tripled and homered for the Eagles.

M-U is now 1-6 in one-run games this season.

Mackenzie Clark pitched all nine innings for M-U and struck out five. Clark was 2-4 at the plate and Kadarenna Sales also had two hits.

M-U (12-15, 9-5) plays at Mormon Trail tonight.
