The Mid-Prairie Golden Hawk baseball team fell back to the .500 mark on the season Monday night dropping a contest to the Bellevue Comets 4-1 at Duane Banks Field on the campus of the University of Iowa.

In a game heard on AM and FM KCII, both teams got on the board in the first with the Comets scoring once on an RBI single from Corbin Stillmunkas to take a 1-0 lead. Mid-Prairie got their run when Peyton Miller raced in from second on a Jacob Leonard single. The difference was the third inning when the Comets scored three times on four hits to take a 4-1 lead and chase Leonard, the Mid-Prairie starter from the game. Brad Tornow answered the call out of the Mid-Prairie bullpen holding Bellevue to just two hits the rest of the night and sitting down 12 in a row to end the game, but the Mid-Prairie offense never got on track against Bellevue starter Devon Kueter who went the distance in the win. Leonard took the loss for Mid-Prairie going three innings, giving up six hits, four runs and walking one. He led the Hawks at the plate going two for three with an RBI. Mid-Prairie is now 9-9 on the season.
