It was a split against the rival Iowa City Regina Regals Tuesday for the Mid-Prairie Golden Hawk boys and girls of summer. After seeing their longest winning streak in seven years, of seven games, snapped on Monday, Mid-Prairie bounced back to edge No. 4 in Class 2A Iowa City Regina 2-1 on the softball diamond in Kalona. Mid-Prairie had eight hits in the game including two for Sydney Knebel, a Madeline Schrader triple and a Gabi Robertson double. Schrader and Brittany Kinsinger each drove in a run. Knebel made those two runs stand up, throwing a complete game in recording the victory, allowing nine hits, one run, walking two and striking out three. The Hawks improve to 12-9 with the win and await a date at No. 7 in Class 2A Wilton Wednesday.

Weather played havoc with the schedule Tuesday night at Paul N. Bailey Field in Wellman for the Golden Hawk baseball team but after sitting through more than two and a half hours of delays and three false starts, Mid-Prairie took on Regina and fell 8-4. Each team scored a run in the first with the Hawks’ coming after Cain Brown led off with a triple and came home on a Will Cavanagh sac fly to center. Regina took a lead they wouldn’t give up the rest of the night with two in the third and then extended the advantage with three more in the fourth and single tallies in the sixth and seventh. Mid-Prairie made things interesting late scoring once in the sixth and twice in the seventh bringing the tying run to the plate in the final frame before the Regals closed down the rally.

Cavanagh was the lone Hawk in the lineup with multiple hits to go along with his one RBI. Brock Harland and Karson Grout each drove in single runs. Brown, Alex Bean and Collin Miller each scored once. Brady Weber worked five innings in taking the loss, giving up nine hits, six runs, walking four and striking out one. Jack Clark drove in four to lead Regina as Cam Lehman improved to 6-1 on the mound. Each team now stands at 12-8 on the year. The Golden Hawk boys also travel to Wilton Wednesday.
