Jayhawks take pair from Eagle softball

MOUND CITY -- Jayhawk-Linn swept a Three Rivers League doubleheader from Uniontown here Friday evening, winning the opener 2-1 and taking the nightcap 11-2.

Eagle pitcher Taylor Wade (4-2) was hit by a line drive during the second game.

"The game started out well," Uniontown head coach Paula Coyan said. "The team got down after the injury and didn't rebound well. We had some mental errors and it cost us the game."

Wade struck out 3 batters in the opener. No batting statistics were provided from either game.

The Eagles played at home against Marmaton Valley in a TRL doubleheader Monday. Information from those games were not available at press time.

Uniontown will play at Hume, Mo., for a non-league doubleheader on Thursday.
