Molly Bryan struck out 14 and scattered two hits for the Glenwood softball team in a 8-1 win over Griswold on Thursday.

Bryan, a freshman, improved to 3-0 on the season with the win. She has not allowed an earned run in three starts this season and has struck out 32.

The Fremont-Mills baseball pounded out a combined 17 hits in 12-1 win over South Page and a 19-4 loss to the host Tigers at the Red Oak Invitational Tournament on Saturday.

In game one, the Knights (3-2) clubbed 11 hits off the Rebels’ pitcher. Austin Hansen, Zach Desourmeaux, Joey Greiner and Joey Carlson each had two hits apiece. Hansen drove in three runs and Carlson two.

Hansen earned the win on the hill pitching a complete game while striking out 13 and scattering four hits.

Glenwood came back from a 1-0 deficit to defeat Tri-Center and complete its regular season with a 13-1 record.

The game, which featured just two officials instead of the usual three, was more physical than coach Brad Selvey expected but he thought his team dealt with that physicality pretty well.

“It was a much more physical game than we were anticipating,” said Selvey. “We really escaped with a win and really, without injuries. It was kind of a chippy game.”

“It's not the team that plays the prettiest that wins. It's the team that scores the most goals that wins,” said Glenwood coach Brad Silvey of his team's 2-1 Class 2A District semifinal loss to Council Bluffs St. Albert on Friday at Iowa Western Community College.

“Honestly, we played the game we wanted to play. We had strong possessions and spread it out well. Unfortunately, St. Albert finished better than we did and we couldn’t come back,” said Silvey.
