The opening round of the substate playoffs delivered a nail‑biter on Tuesday night, as Bondurant-Farrar edged out Pella by a single run.
The contest stretched into the tenth inning before a walkoff walk plated the decisive run, sealing a 1-0 victory for the visitors.
A Pitcher’s Duel in Extra Innings
Pella’s Teagan Hoekstra was nothing short of spectacular on the mound, fanning nine batters over six innings while keeping the opposition scoreless.
Despite her effort, the Dutch left eight baserunners on base, including a cluster of five in the seventh and eighth frames that proved costly.
The win marks a milestone for Bondurant-Farrar, while Pella bids farewell to seven senior players who helped capture the 3A state title last season.
