(Audubon, IA) — Class 1A top ranked Exira EHK/Audubon will have another test on their road to Des Moines; Bedford will try to upset the Spartans tonight with coverage on KSOM.
East Mills could not find a way to tangle with Exira EHK/Audubon in a 12-0 loss in the quarters on Wednesday. Head Coach Tom Petersen is satisfied with the way his team is playing — he feels that the girls have improved since midway through the season. Petersen feels like everybody is always prepared in case the ball is hit their way
Taryn Petersen has been a terror at the top of the line up — the Junior is hitting .551 with 5 HR and 21 RBI and has an on base percentage of .656 which ranks 13th in the entire state and is 6th in Class 1A. Dad and Coach Tom says with Anna Larsen and Riley Miller batting 2 and 3, that makes for some good table setters
Bedford beat Diagonal 13-3 in the first round and then topped Murray 7-4, scoring three times in the bottom of the 7th. The Bulldogs are batting .326 as a club with Junior Aniya Hardee hitting .378 with 6 HR and 36 RBI. Freshman Charlotte Shafar is batting .463 with 29 RBI. Senior Macy Musich has 20 starts in the circle with a pedestrian 4.70 ERA. Petersen is not worried with Bedford, he is more worried about his own team
Bedford is 16-12, Exira EHK Audubon is 21-4; game time is at 7:00 pm, coverage on KSOM 96.5 FM
