Katie Kuch tossed all 10 innings in the first game for Prairie (9-7, 5-5). She did not allow a run in eight of those innings and finished with five strikeouts.

Tyler Butz drove in three runs and Caleb Davison went 2-for-3 for Prairie (9-6, 5-3) in the opener. Brennan Hammer pitched a complete game for the victory.

They faced each other Friday night and split their Mississippi Valley Conference twinbill at Prairie.
Linn-Mar won the first game, 7-2. Prairie grabbed the nightcap, 8-2.
Prairie's Katie Kuch fired a one-hit shutout in the opener, but Washington used a four-run second inning to win the nightcap and the teams split a Mississippi Valley Conference doubleheader Thursday night at Washington.
