Iola High’s Mustangs took it to the brink Tuesday, as both games of a doubleheader against visiting Prairie View came down to the last batters.
In the opener, the Buffalos rallied for two runs in the top of the seventh inning, to turn a 4-3 deficit into a 5-4 victory before Iola returned the favor with Derrick Weir’s walk-off double in the bottom of the seventh inning of the nightcap for a 2-1 win.
The split keeps Iola’s record even on the season at 4-4. The Mustangs are at 4-2 in Pioneer League action.
