Both the Keota Eagles and Sigourney Savages rolled to baseball victories Friday night. Keota trounced conference rival Belle Plaine 11-1, rallying from a run scored in the first inning with two of their own in the second.

From there, the Eagles cruised, scoring once more in the third; four times in the fourth; and twice each in the fifth and sixth frames to end the game early. Junior Billie Kindred led the Keota lineup with two hits, including a double, and four runs batted in.

Senior Tanner Waterhouse also had two hits and a run scored and blasted a triple. Senior Cole Kindred and eighth-grader Blake Baker each came up with two RBI on one hit, while freshman Brennan McGuire and sophomore Jacob Libe both scored a pair of runs.

Cole Kindred was also the winning pitcher, throwing all six innings and allowing no earned runs on one hit for the Eagles, who are now 4-9 in the South Iowa Cedar League and 8-10 overall.

Sigourney also fell behind 1-0 an inning in at home Friday against Iowa City Regina, but the Savages claimed their first lead with three runs in the second and never gave it back.

Despite a late pair of runs by the Regals, Sigourney scoring twice in the fourth and three more times in the sixth was more than enough to secure a 9-4 victory.

Senior Jake Moore paced the Savages at the plate with a home run, two runs batted in and three total hits. Freshman Ike Molyneux also went deep and had three RBI, while junior Issac Bruns added a pair of base hits, one run scored and another driven in.

Freshman Chase Clarahan got the victory after pitching the first five-and-two-thirds innings and picking up five strikeouts while allowing only six hits. Sigourney improves to 15-2 with the win and will be back to conference action in their next game Monday against Iowa Valley.
