McAuley, Neosho post district upsets



From staff reports

sports@joplinglobe.com

SPRINGFIELD, Mo. — Neosho posted the victory it wanted against Joplin.

The Wildcats, beaten 13-3 in six innings by the host Eagles last Thursday, knocked off fourth-seeded Joplin 9-7 in the first round of the Class 4 District 12 Tournament on Monday on Neil Pittman Field at Kickapoo.

“You have to give Neosho credit,” Joplin coach Kirk Harryman said. “They were ready to play and did more than we did to win. That’s the bottom line.

“We dug ourselves a hole a little bit,” Harryman said. “We tried to arrange things the best way we could to win the tournament.

“I’m proud of our seniors. I thought they battled all year. This is a tough way to go out. But that’s baseball. It can be a cruel game.

“We had guys on base (the Eagles had 16 hits) and we had the right guys at the plate to drive them in,” Harryman said. “We just didn’t get that big hit to swin the momentum our way and that hurt us.”

McAuley surprises Pierce City

SARCOXIE, Mo. — The eighth-seeded Warriors scored three times in the fifth and pulled off a 3-2 upset of the top-seeded Eagles in the Class 2 District 13 Tournament.

The Warriors got a stellar outing from sophomore pitcher Austin Metts to make those runs stand up. Metts went the distance while striking out five and walking just one.

The Warriors now face the No. 5 Sarcoxie Bears, who beat No. 4 Diamond 7-2 behind J.D. Smith’s no-hit pitching. Smith struck out 14 while going 3-for-3 at the plate with a double and a pair of two-run home runs.

Lamar needed just five innings to oust College Heights 11-0 in another first-round contest. Lamar scored five times in the first and then plated three in both the second and third innings.

Dusty Schlicting went 2-for-3 with two RBI for Lamar and Ryan Lock slugged a homer.

Class 3 favorites prevail
