CLARKSVILLE, Mo. — The Clopton Lady Hawks fell to the Bowling Green Lady ‘Cats 10-0 on Tuesday night. Bowling Green and Clopton athletes were dressed in alternate pink uniforms for Breast Cancer Awareness month. The Pink Out Game has become a tradition over the last few years for the two EMO Conference teams.

Bowling Green made things happen in the second inning, as the team notched seven runs on the board. The Lady ‘Cats laid down bunts and found their way on base to rattle Clopton’s ace Shana Yates and the Lady Hawks defense. A couple of infield hits and shots to the gap put Bowling Green in the important EMO match.

Bowling Green’s ace Tanner Turner was solid in the circle, making it difficult for Clopton to rally back. Turner tossed a two hit shutout and recorded nine strikeouts in the varsity win. Clopton’s Kelsey Shuford and Madelyn Brune broke Turner’s no-hitter. Shuford hit a double in the bottom of the first inning, and Brune picked up a single in the bottom of the sixth inning.
