OTTAWA — Iola High’s Mustangs were in their first-ever regional baseball tournament final. That was a good thing. Seven seniors on the 2012 Mustang roster finished four years of success — not having a losing season in any of their four years at IHS.

That didn’t matter. Most of the Mustang players couldn’t see those achievements clearly Tuesday night. All they knew is they came up short of the ultimate goal — making it to a state tournament.

Senior Braden Larson laced a double to right field with two gone in the top of the seventh. There was still life. There was still fight in the Mustangs.
