The season included the team tying Pella Christian for the Little Hawkeye Conference title.The only hits Pella managed in the game were a pair of singles by Lisa Houser and a single by Mackenzie Anthony.
Pella pitcher Mandy DeMeulenaere pitched well but took the loss despite allowing just six hits. DeMeulenaere fanned three in the seven inning affair.The victory improved Keokuk’s season record to 31-9 and put the Chiefs into the 3A Regional finals against Fort Madison.
