Offensively, Eric Foster and Rowan Askew were each 2-for-5 with three RBIs, Truitt Lindsey went 2-for-3 and drove in a run, Ford Coleman was 2-for-4 with an RBI, and Bickford went 1-for-2 and drove in a run.
Aidan Shrable pitched a five-inning no-hitter in the late game as MacLeod shut out Harrison 11-0. Shrable ended up with four strikeouts. Will Roz led the Mountain Home offense by going 2-for-3 and driving in three runs, Foster had a double and two RBIs, Owen Morris went 1-for-2 and drove in a run, and Askew was 1-for-3 with an RBI.
