Indiana’s 14U all-stars are headed to the Junior League World Series in Kirkland, Washington after beating the host team Bonanno, 7-3, Tuesday afternoon.
Doubles by Claire Brewer and Kaitlyn Houser gave Indiana a three-run lead in the third inning, and after Sophia Boyer knocked in a run with a single in the fourth, Kaylee Cass put the game out of reach with a three-run home run in the sixth. Cass also earned the win in the circle after holding Bonanno to three runs and six hits while collecting five strikeouts.
