While rain canceled the Saturday segment of the 42nd annual Murray softball tournament, three games were played Friday afternoon with the participating teams of Murray, Clarinda, East Union, Melcher-Dallas and Lamoni.

Murray’s first game against East Union had them lose by one point 5-4. The Lady Eagles took the lead with one run scored in both the first and second innings that the Lady Mustangs matched in innings three and four. Murray pulled ahead by two runs in the fifth inning and East Union added one in the sixth inning for a 4-3 deficit. In the seventh and final inning, the Eagles got in two more runs that cinched the win. Presley VanWinkle, Keirsten Klein, Karina Romero and Gracie Mathes each scored one run; Klein had two runs batted in and Paisley VanWinkle had two. Paisley and Madison Henrichs each struck out four opponents on the pitcher’s mound.

Their second game against Clarinda saw the Cardinals win by a margin of 10 runs 16-6. The Lady Cardinals had eight runs to the Mustangs’ four in the first inning, four to their two in the second and scored the remaining four of the game in the fourth inning, the last inning played of the game.

Klein had two runs in this game, with one apiece by Presley, Leah Frederick, Maliya Berry and Romero. Four batted in runs were accomplished by Berry, and one each by Mathes and Paisley.
