Cheyenne Eads and Hailey Pogue combined to throw a five-inning no-hitter Wednesday in Shelbyville’s 11-0 victory over Columbus East (9-7).
Eads worked a perfect three innings, striking out eight of the nine batters she faced.
Two defensive errors and walk put Pogue in a bind in the fourth but she worked out of the based-loaded situation with an infield pop fly and two strikeouts. She then struck out all three batters she faced in the fifth to close out the win.
The Golden Bears (11-3), winners of six straight and nine of their last 10, scored five times in the third inning to break open a scoreless tie.
