Independence had to settle for second on Saturday, but Eli Stepp sure wasn't going down easily. Stepp tossed three innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off one hit. The effort marked the fewest hits he has had since back in April of 2024.
Stepp and Independence will host Senatobia at 7:00 p.m. on Monday. The Wildcats got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Warriors thanks in part to Stepp: he scored two runs and stole a base while getting on base in all five of his plate appearances. Can he match (or beat) that stellar performance? Check MaxPreps after the action for a full breakdown of the game and more baseball content.
