It's hard to turn regular season success into postseason wins, a fact Maryville can now relate to. They fell just short of the Halls Red Devils by a score of 1-0 on Monday. The game marked the first time this season in which Maryville was not able to get on the board.
Bekah Duck spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered only one earned run on three hits. She has been consistent recently: she hasn't pitched less than five innings in four consecutive pitching appearances.
On Halls' side, Maryville's batters probably weren't too happy with Emery Bales, who pitched a no hitter and racked up 15 Ks (she gave up no walks).
At the plate, the team relied heavily on Brianna Smith, who went 1-for-3 with a home run.
Maryville has traveled a rocky road recently having lost three of their last four matches, which put a noticeable dent in their 19-9 record this season. As for Halls, the victory was the seventh in a row for them, bringing their record for this year to 29-7.
As of now, neither Maryville nor Halls have any future games scheduled.
