Weather alters Tuesday's HHS athletics schedule

HAYS, Kan. – The Fort Hays State baseball team avoided the series sweep with a 7-4 win over No. 4 ranked Missouri Southern on Sunday at Larks Park. This win for the Tigers snapped a 17-game losing streak to the Lions going all the way back to 2017. 

It's FHSU's first win over a ranked opponent since 2020 when they defeated #23 Colorado School of Mines, 11-9 (Feb 9, 2020) and their first win over a top-5 ranked opponent since 2012 when they knocked off #1 Central Missouri, 14-6 (Mar 25, 2012).

FHSU improved to 14-22 overall and 5-15 in conference action, while MSSU dropped to 27-8 overall and 16-4 in conference play.

Cade Flaherty took command on the mound early for the Tigers retiring the Lions in order in the first two innings, while collecting three strikeouts. The Tigers plated three runs on three hits and one Lion error in the bottom of the second to take the lead. Elliott Herrmann&nbsp;led off the inning with a double to the right center gap before Zane Knox&nbsp;launched a towering home run to deep right center plating two runs. A throwing error by the MSSU third baseman allowed Zach Davis&nbsp;to reach second before Ed Scott&nbsp;brought him home on a single back up the middle.

The Lions manufactured a run in the third to get on the board, but the Tigers answered with three more runs in the home half. After a leadoff single from Isaiah Ural, the Tigers put together a two-out rally. Jenner Kehe&nbsp;singled up the middle before Davis smashed a ball into the left field wall for a double plating Ural and Kehe. Another MSSU miscue allowed the Tigers to load the bases and Davis would cross the plate on a wild pitch. The Lions found some life at the plate in the fifth scoring three runs on four hits and an errant throw by the Tigers. Joel Nieves&nbsp;would bring home the final run of the contest with an RBI single to left center in the bottom of the frame bringing the score to 7-4.

Flaherty (2-2) tossed his first career complete game in the win, the third by a Tiger pitcher this season. Over the final four innings, the sophomore held the Lions scoreless scattering a pair of hits and punching out four batters.

Ural finished the day 4-for-5 at the plate, while Knox and Davis each collected two RBI.

The Tigers go on the road on Tuesday to play a single game at Rockhurst in Kansas City, Mo. First pitch is slated for 3 p.m.

⚾ FHSU avoids sweep, upsets No. 4 Missouri Southern in series finale

HAYS, Kan. – Fort Hays State Softball fell twice to conference-leading Missouri Southern on Sunday at Fleharty Family Field. The Tigers scored only one run on the day, falling 6-0 and 9-1. Errors were also costly to the Tigers as only five of 15 runs scored by the Lions on the day were earned. FHSU moved to 24-13 overall, 6-4 in the MIAA, while MSSU moved to 26-7 overall and 11-1 in the MIAA.

Game 1: Missouri Southern 6, Fort Hays State 0 Missouri Southern took an early lead with back-to-back doubles in the second inning of what was shaping up to be a pitcher's duel in the opening contest. However, an error committed by the Tigers to open the fifth inning led to four unearned runs by the Lions. A triple cleared the bases for three of four runs in the inning.&nbsp;<a href="https://fhsuathletics.com/sports/softball/roster/morgan-schmidt/7087">Morgan Schmidt</a>&nbsp;relieved&nbsp;<a href="https://fhsuathletics.com/sports/softball/roster/savanah-egger/7081">Savanah Egger</a>&nbsp;with two outs in the fifth and went on to allow just one earned run in the sixth when the Lions tripled and singled.

The Tigers had the chance to break through early with back-to-back singles to open the game by&nbsp;<a href="https://fhsuathletics.com/sports/softball/roster/peyton-shepard/7094">Peyton Shepard</a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href="https://fhsuathletics.com/sports/softball/roster/sarah-tiffany/7088">Sarah Tiffany</a>. Each stole a bag to set up a golden opportunity with runners at second and third, but three straight strikeouts by the Tigers left the game scoreless. From that point, the Tigers collected just three more hits off Missouri Southern starter Bailey Lacy, who threw a complete game shutout. She struck out eight Tigers and walked just one, moving to 8-0 on the season. Egger moved to 11-5 on the year, picking up two strikeouts in 4.2 innings of work.&nbsp;<a href="https://fhsuathletics.com/sports/softball/roster/morgan-schmidt/7087">Morgan Schmidt</a>&nbsp;struck out three and allowed two hits in her 2.1 innings of relief. Game 2: Missouri Southern 9, Fort Hays State 1 A tough call against the Tigers in the first inning gave the Lions another early lead in the second contest. A throw to cut down the lead runner at the plate led&nbsp;<a href="https://fhsuathletics.com/sports/softball/roster/madison-pierce/7086">Madison Pierce</a>&nbsp;to a point where she caught the ball and immediately tagged the runner coming home. But the umpires got together and decided to call obstruction, though Pierce had no time to make an adjustment of where she was due to where the throw took her.

The Tigers bounced back in the bottom half of the inning for their only run of the day to knot the score at 1-1.&nbsp;<a href="https://fhsuathletics.com/sports/softball/roster/peyton-shepard/7094">Peyton Shepard</a>&nbsp;led off with a chopper single and then a throwing error allowed&nbsp;<a href="https://fhsuathletics.com/sports/softball/roster/sarah-tiffany/7088">Sarah Tiffany</a>&nbsp;to reach base. Moments later, Shepard came in to score on a&nbsp;<a href="https://fhsuathletics.com/sports/softball/roster/regan-curry/7080">Regan Curry</a>&nbsp;sacrifice fly RBI. The Lions immediately took advantage of a mental miscue by the Tigers in the second. Adrianna Young doubled down the right field line and thought she had a triple, but teammate Ashlynn Williams put on the brakes in front of her at third base and left Young stranded between second and third. But in the Tigers' haste to try to get Young, Williams then broke for home and scored and Young moved over to third on the throw home. Emily Perry then put down a bunt single for an RBI and it was 3-1 Lions in the blink of an eye. A two-out error by the Tigers in the fourth ballooned into six unearned runs by the Lions. The error allowed the first run of the inning to score, then a single scored another run. At that point,&nbsp;<a href="https://fhsuathletics.com/sports/softball/roster/bailey-carlson/7078">Bailey Carlson</a>&nbsp;turned the ball over to&nbsp;<a href="https://fhsuathletics.com/sports/softball/roster/morgan-schmidt/7087">Morgan Schmidt</a>, who could not find an out and gave up three straight hits which plated three more runs.&nbsp;<a href="https://fhsuathletics.com/sports/softball/roster/emma-montoya/7092">Emma Montoya</a>&nbsp;relieved and surrendered a run-scoring double before eventually getting the final out of the inning. The three runs Schmidt allowed were earned on her total for the year, since she doesn't get the benefit of previous errors in the inning when she enters. But all three of her runs are team unearned runs, since the Tigers should have been out of the inning. The Tigers put together three singles in the fifth off MSSU reliever Natalie Bates to load the bases, but a frustrating day ended with a strikeout as the Lions won by run rule in five innings, 9-1. The Tigers slipped back into a tie for fourth in the MIAA standings with Rogers State at 6-4, while the Lions took over the conference lead at 11-1. The Tigers go on the road to Washburn and Emporia State next week on Friday and Saturday (Apr. 7-8), which starts a string of three straight conference weekends away from Hays.&nbsp;&nbsp;

🥎 Tiger bats silenced in sweep by MSSU

By AVERY OSEN Associated Press

KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) — Joey Gallo hit two home runs, Joe Ryan gave up one run over six innings and the Minnesota Twins completed a sweep of the Kansas City Royals with a 7-4 victory on Sunday.

Gallo hit his first home run of the game in the sixth inning and in the next frame belted a three-run blast over the right field bullpen to extend the Twins' lead to 6-1. It was his 16th career multi-homer game.

“Obviously, you want to start off well and it's really early, but I wanted to help my team and I felt like I wasn't contributing as much as I wanted to the first couple of games, but it's good to have a good day today,” Gallo said. “We've been working a lot and even worked after the game for like 30 to 45 minutes yesterday with all the hitting coaches. I've been feeling pretty good, so hopeful keep that going.”

After failing to score in the first two games of the season, the Royals finally got a run in the second inning on Edward Olivares' homer. That broke a 19-inning scoreless streak — the team's longest drought to start a season in franchise history.

“You hope it is momentum, but tomorrow is a new day," Royals manager Matt Quatraro said. "Just because you don’t get runs one day doesn’t mean you can’t the next and vice versa. These guys are working hard, the mood was good and the work before that game was good so it is not something to be concerned about.”

The home run was the only blemish for Ryan (1-0). He went six innings, struck out six and allowed one earned run, three hits and two walks. Brad Keller (0-1) threw 4 ⅔ innings, giving up two earned runs, five hits, four walks and fanned six.

“As he found his off-speed pitches, the game changed for him,” Twins manager Rocco Baldelli said. “I think he was battling himself for a little bit and probably only had one pitch to work with in the first couple of innings.”

In his first start as a Royal, Matt Duffy hit a two-run homer to left field into the fountains, but it wasn’t enough for Kansas City.

“I think we showed some signs (of offensive momentum) today," Duffy said. "The beginning of the season is tough because everyone is looking for that first hit. Once you get that out of the way, you can settle into the season. It was a tough first couple of games, but adjustments were made, which is what you look for in a young team.”

The Twins swept their opening series for the first time since 2017, when they also did it against Kansas City.

The Kansas City trio of MJ Melendez, Bobby Witt Jr. and Vinnie Pasquantino is a combined 1-for-28 with 10 strikeouts to start its second-year campaigns.

“If those guys are on base, it is easier to score runs," Quatraro said. “If they can get on, we have a better chance of scoring.”

Twins: Send RHP Tyler Mahle to the mound Monday as they continue their road trip in Miami, where they'll faceRHP Johnny Cueto.

Royals: Kansas City goes with RHP Brady Singer when they host Toronto and RHP Jose Berrios on Monday to start a four-game set.

🎾 Tigers fall in weekend conference finale

LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) — Taiyanna Jackson had 17 points and career-high tying 21 rebounds — her fourth consecutive double-double and 23rd of the season — Zakiyah Franklin added 19 points and Kansas beat Columbia 66-59 Saturday to win the WNIT championship.

Chandler Prater added nine points, 11 rebounds and four steals for Kansas (25-11) and Wyvette Mayberry scored 12 points. The Jayhawks finished with their most wins since the 1997-98 team that also won 25 games and set a program record for home wins in a season with 19.

This season Kansas made its first appearance in the AP Top 25 in nearly a decade after the Jayhawks — who won 21 games last season and advanced to the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2013 — set a program record with 10 consecutive wins to open the season.

Columbia (28-6) struggled offensively against the length and athleticism of the Kansas defense. The Lions, who went into the game ranked No. 13 nationally in scoring offense (78.8 per game) and No. 12 in rebound margin (plus-8.5), were held to fewer than 60 points for just the third time this season and outrebounded (49-41) for just the fourth time.

Franklin scored eight straight Kansas points in a 12-5 spurt that gave the Jayhawks a 29-25 lead — the largest by either team to that point — with a minute to go in the first half. After Kitty Henderson hit a 3 for the Lions, Chandler Prater's jumper made it 31-28 at intermission. Henderson hit a 3-pointer, Abbey Hsu made a jumper and Jaida Patrick added another 3 in the first 68 seconds of the third quarter to put Columbia ahead by five before a 15-0 spurt gave Kansas the lead for good.

Columbia missed 10 consecutive field goals and made just one of its next 15 from the field after Patrick's 3 and Kansas never trailed over the final 18 minutes.

Hsu led the Lions with 19 points and Kaitlyn Davis scored 13. Hsu finished the season with 606 points, two shy of the program record set by Camille Zimmerman in 2016-17.

Jackson had three blocks to extend her single-season Kansas record to 109.

Columbia is the first team in Ivy League history to advance to the WNIT's championship game. Last year, the Lions were the first team in conference history to make it to the Great Eight, where they fell to Seton Hall, 78-75.

Columbia’s 28 wins this season are a new program record, three more than the previous record set last year when the Lions went 25-7.

🏀 Kansas women beat Columbia to win WNIT championship

By CODY FRIESEN Associated Press

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Sonny Gray combined in four-hitter, Jose Miranda had an RBI single, Kyle Farmer drove in another run with a sacrifice fly and the Minnesota Twins beat the Kansas City Royals 2-0 to open with consecutive shutouts for the first time in franchise history.

Gray (1-0) allowed three hits and had a strikeout and four walks, all of which came in full-count situations. Relievers Jorge Alcalá, Griffin Jax, Caleb Thielbar and Jorge López held the Royals scoreless. Thielbar struck out three, and López got his first save of the year

The Twins and original Washington Senators had never opened with consecutive shutouts.

“How can you not be pleased with not giving up any runs, pitching and defense?" Twins manager Rocco Baldelli said. “I couldn’t be happier with all the guys we’ve brought into the game and how they have been pitching. Combine that with the plays the guys are making behind them and it has looked good.”

Kansas City is 0 for 14 with runners in scoring position in its first two games.

Miranda singled to center in the first to score Byron Buxton. Farmer came on as a pinch hitter in the sixth and hit a sacrifice fly to center, also scoring Buxton.

"It is incredible watching him play and seeing what he does,” Farmer said.

Christian Vázquez went 2 for 3 with a pair of singles. Buxton also had two hits.

In his Royals debut, Jordan Lyles (0-1) threw 5 1/3 innings and gave up two runs — one earned — on five hits with two strikeouts and two walks.

“His stuff was good and pace was good,” Royals manager Matt Quatraro said. "I thought he had some good curveballs below the bats and overall you couldn’t ask for much more.”

Salvador Perez had a double in the fifth and a single in the eighth. The Royals left eight men on base with four hits.

“We got some opportunities today, but it’s part of the game," Perez said.

Franmil Reyes became the first Royals batter called for a timer violation, during the start of his at-bat with the bases loaded in the third inning. He struck out.

RHP Joe Ryan will start the series finale for Minnesota. RHP Brad Keller will counter for Kansas City.

HAYS, Kan. – Fort Hays State Softball picked up a big doubleheader sweep of Pittsburg State on Saturday at Fleharty Family Field. The Tigers improved to 24-11 overall and 6-2 in the MIAA by scores of 3-0 and 3-2. Savannah Egger&nbsp;threw a complete-game shutout in the opener, her MIAA-leading seventh, then saved Bailey Carlson's&nbsp;win in game two by getting the final three outs. Game 1: Fort Hays State 3, Pittsburg State 0 Savannah Egger&nbsp;won the battle between two of the MIAA's top pitchers, outdueling Hannah Harrison in the circle. Egger improved to 11-4 on the season in her complete-game shutout, while Harrison also threw a complete game but moved to 10-4 with the loss. Egger worked around leadoff singles in both the first and fourth innings, stranding runners at third each time. She allowed a one-out double in the seventh after a dropped foul ball elongated the at bat, but stranded a runner at third once again with a flyout to end the game. Egger had eight strikeouts with just four hits allowed and did not walk anyone. She had six of her eight strikeouts through three innings, punching out two in each of the first three innings. The Tigers scored their first run of the game by stringing together three singles in the second inning.&nbsp;<a href="https://fhsuathletics.com/sports/softball/roster/regan-curry/7080">Regan Curry</a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href="https://fhsuathletics.com/sports/softball/roster/carly-stuke/7096">Carly Stuke</a>&nbsp;had back-to-back singles to open the inning, moved up on a sacrifice by&nbsp;<a href="https://fhsuathletics.com/sports/softball/roster/lilliana-ramirez-johnson/7093">Lilliana Ramirez-Johnson</a>, and Curry scored on an RBI single by&nbsp;<a href="https://fhsuathletics.com/sports/softball/roster/madison-pierce/7086">Madison Pierce</a>. <a href="https://fhsuathletics.com/sports/softball/roster/adysen-burghart/7077">Adysen Burghart</a>&nbsp;helped generate a Tiger run in the fifth, hit by a pitch to open the inning. She eventually came around to score on a two-out RBI single by&nbsp;<a href="https://fhsuathletics.com/sports/softball/roster/loren-beggs/7075">Loren Beggs</a>. The Tigers got another big two-out knock in the sixth when Pierce drove a ball off the left center field wall that brought home Stuke. It was Pierce's second RBI of the game and capped the scoring for the Tigers. Game 2: Fort Hays State 3, Pittsburg State 2 Fort Hays State took a 2-0 lead with a pair of runs in the second, only to see Pittsburg State knot the score 2-2 in the top of the third. But the Tigers bounced back for the decisive run of the game in the third and held the Gorillas scoreless the rest of the way. <a href="https://fhsuathletics.com/sports/softball/roster/regan-curry/7080">Regan Curry</a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href="https://fhsuathletics.com/sports/softball/roster/carly-stuke/7096">Carly Stuke</a>&nbsp;got a rally started for the Tigers in the second.

That set up&nbsp;<a href="https://fhsuathletics.com/sports/softball/roster/lilliana-ramirez-johnson/7093">Lilliana Ramirez-Johnson</a>&nbsp;for an RBI single chopper back up the middle that jumped up to a spot that was tough to handle for the second baseman. The Gorillas used some good fortune to get their runs in the third. A bloop hit between the pitching circle and first base may have spun foul, but the Tigers touched it in fair territory resulting in an infield hit. After a walk and wild pitch, the Gorillas had runners at second and third. Tiger pitcher&nbsp;<a href="https://fhsuathletics.com/sports/softball/roster/bailey-carlson/7078">Bailey Carlson</a>&nbsp;dodged one bullet by getting a fielder's choice grounder where&nbsp;<a href="https://fhsuathletics.com/sports/softball/roster/regan-curry/7080">Regan Curry</a>&nbsp;threw the lead runner out at home. But then a well-placed chopper single that Carlson fielded resulted in the first Gorilla run since she had no play anywhere. Paxtyn Hayes then drove home the tying run with a sacrifice fly. After&nbsp;<a href="https://fhsuathletics.com/sports/softball/roster/peyton-shepard/7094">Peyton Shepard</a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href="https://fhsuathletics.com/sports/softball/roster/sarah-tiffany/7088">Sarah Tiffany</a>&nbsp;picked up one-out singles in the third,&nbsp;<a href="https://fhsuathletics.com/sports/softball/roster/regan-curry/7080">Regan Curry</a>&nbsp;had a timely two-out double down the right-field line to score Shepard and put the Tigers back on top 3-2. Carlson took that gift from her offense and made good on it holding the Gorillas scoreless in the fourth, fifth, and sixth innings. She allowed just five hits in the game with one walk before handing the ball to&nbsp;<a href="https://fhsuathletics.com/sports/softball/roster/savanah-egger/7081">Savanah Egger</a>&nbsp;in the seventh after a leadoff single. Egger got a swinging strikeout of the first batter she faced, nearly had the second batter looking but it was called a ball for a walk. She then got a line out to left field and finished the game on a nasty pitch with movement for a strikeout, picking up her second save of the season. Egger finished the day with eight scoreless innings, lowering her season ERA to 1.59. The Tigers will host Missouri Southern on Sunday. The battle between two of the top teams in the MIAA begins at 12 p.m. You can hear the game on KJLS (103.3).

HAYS, Kan. - With strong winds gusting upwards of 40 mph and blowing out to left field, the Fort Hays State baseball team dropped a home run derby in its series opener against No. 4 Missouri Southern on Friday, 13-3. The teams combined to club 10 home runs on the day, with all but two runs in the contest coming off a long ball. The Lions led 3-0 after home runs in both the first and second innings before Zach Davis&nbsp;pulled the Tigers within one with a bomb of his own. The left-handed hitting junior poked a 3-1 pitch sailing the opposite way into left field, with the wind helping propel it over the fence and inside the foul pole. Missouri Southern responded with two more home runs in the third to lead 6-2 before starter Zach Berg&nbsp;(3-3) settled in to post zeros over the next three innings. Both teams clubbed solo shots in the seventh, including a drive to straightaway center off the bat of Zane Knox. The visitors tacked on six runs against the Tiger bullpen, while the MSSU relievers kept the Tigers at bay to secure the victory. Berg struck out seven batters over 7.0 innings of work, allowing seven runs on 10 hits and three walks. Knox was 3-for-4 at the plate with one RBI and two runs. The Tigers and Lions will resume their series Saturday at Larks Park beginning at 1 p.m.&nbsp;&nbsp;
