Iola High’s junior varsity baseball split a pair of slugfests Thursday.
The Mustangs fended off visiting Independence, 12-10, in the opener, but could not stop the Bulldog comeback in the nightcap, losing 9-8.
Kohl Endicott picked up the win in the first game. He gave up four hits and three walks in four innings, while striking out four. Coleson Wiggin earned the save. He gave up two hits with a strikeout in one inning of work.
