Kearney Misko Sports Edges GI Home Federal

Kearney used the most of its four total baserunners in a 3-2 win over Grand Island Home Federal Tuesday. After three perfect innings, GI starter Ethan Cossler walked two before Griffin Novacek hit a three-run homer in the fourth. The next batter reached on an error but was caught stealing. 

Cossler sat down the final eight, tossing a one hitter and striking out seven in the loss. 

Home Federal led early. Ian Arends singled and scored on Gage Gannon's sac fly. The other run came in the fifth when Trent Verplank singled and scored on Brock Cushing's RBI single.
