OSAWATOMIE — Game one in Osawatomie was a breeze for Post 15 with ace Derek Bycroft dominating on the mound. Bycroft cruised through six innings by throwing only 83 pitches. He allowed only two hits and one run during his complete game. Iola won 9-1 in six innings due to the eight-run rule.

“Lately, I’ve been struggling with my pitching,” Bycroft said. “I really wanted to get out there, throw strikes and finish a complete game.”

Game two was much different.

In the nightcap, the Indians handed the ball to Kane Rogers. Rogers struggled with some bad luck and control problems and was able to record only two outs in the first inning and giving up five runs.
