Southeast District Division II
BB — Miami Trace 1, Circleville 0 (8 innings)
CIRCLEVILLE — Circleville got an excellent pitching performance from JD Reuter, but Miami Trace got the job done when it needed to in a 1-0 tournament win Wednesday.
Reuter had gone seven innings without giving up a run.
But a one-out error in the eighth put MT’s Gaige Stuckey on second base.
After a fly out to center, the Panthers’ Brady Armstrong had only the fourth MT hit but it was enough to bring Stuckey in with the game-ending run.
It was appropriate that Stuckey scored the winning run as he was the one who kept Circleville from scoring for eight innings.
Stuckey gave up only one hit – a first-inning double to Austin Gray – walked two and struck out 17 to help the Panthers advance.
Circleville wraps up the season with a 12-15 record.
Note – Wednesday’s tournament game was scheduled to be played at Miami Trace, but field conditions necessitated moving the game to Circleville.
