Prairie Home softball hosts Senior Night

The Prairie Home varsity softball team hosted Senior Night Sept. 28, where four Lady Panthers, Taylor Zey, Brittany Chenault, Megan Morton and team manager Amber Frank, were recognized via a special ceremony. Prairie Home almost pocketed a win as the Lady Panthers lost a close contest to Higbee, 4-3.

Kristynn Watson pitched the loss and recorded five strikeouts.

"Kristynn pitched a very good game for us," Prairie Home Coach Kris Stodgel said. "We started out behind due to three walks and a double, but the girls came together and tied the game up and held on. A few fielding errors and base running cost us the win."

Kendra Stinson led Prairie Home hits with a homerun, followed by Brooke Emmerich with a triple and Kristynn Watson with a double.
