While storms and cold weather earlier in the week forced some changes to the schedule, Iola and Humboldt’s baseball and softball teams and Yates Center’s softball squad still were able to get in plenty of action Friday. Above, Iola High’s Trent Latta fields a throw while Humboldt High’s Zach Vannata slides safely into third base. The Mustangs, otherwise, had things well in control, winning the first game of their doubleheader 16-2. At left, Yates Center High’s Allie Bruner, left, throws the ball to attempt a double play while Iola’s Katie Thompson reaches second base. The Wildcats won the opening game of the Lindsey Friederich Memorial Softball Tournament, 10-2. Humboldt’s softball team also was in the tournament, taking on Neodesha. Complete results of the softball and baseball action, as well as Iola’s tennis and track and field results from Friday, will be in Monday’s Register.
