Late game scoring was the key in both games as Garden City used a multi-run fifth inning to take the lead in the first game. Game one goes to Garden City as Pratt falls 3-5. In game two, it was the Beavers who used multiple runs in the sixth inning to solidify their hold on the lead. PCC comes away with the game two win at 7-6 to split the double header.
