MUSTANG — —
Three Mustang pitchers combined for a two-hitter as the Broncos completed a sweep of a District 6A-4 series with Enid, 11-3 Tuesday.
The Broncs belted out 17 hits, scoring a run in the second, four in the fourth and sixth and two in the fifth. The Plainsmen dropped to 15-20-1 overall and 5-7 in district.
Jake Henthorn had two RBI doubles for Mustang, now 21-11 overall and 8-4 in district. Landon Vodka and Andrew Madison both drove in two runs
Trevor Miller, who picked off two runners, took the loss for the Plainsmen.
“They swing the bats real well,’’ Enid coach James Peoples said. “We couldn’t get them out.’’
Mustang’s Brandon Taylor had a no-hitter until the fifth when Christain Voitik had a bloop single. Cole Floyd had opened the inning with a walk.
Trey Gilbertson doubled home Floyd and Voitik. Curtis Shelton walked which brought in reliever Chris Gibbons.
Gibbons departed after Haden Houska reached on a fielder’s choice and Shawn Spring and Jake Walker walked bringing in another run.
However, Jacob Rateliff retired Lawson King to end the inning. He shut out the Plainsmen in the sixth and seventh to end the game.
“We just didn’t produce at the plate,’’ Peoples said.. “Their kids kept us all balance all day and we couldn’t come up with a hit.’’
The Plainsmen will conclude the regular season at Putnam City North Friday. Scheduled games at Bixby Saturday and Broken Arrow Monday have been canceled because Enid has reached the 22-game non-tournament limit.

Maciel's dream still alive and kicking
J.P. Maciel wants college scouts to know he still is kicking ... and available.
Maciel, 21, who re-wrote the Enid Plainsmen football single-season and career kicking record books in his lone season on the gridiron in 2010, even showed off his leg strength Tuesday at the site of his past glory, Selby Stadium.
Fresh off an 8-hour shift from his job at Roberts Ranch, Maciel connected on 12 of 14 field goals, including nailing it from 50 yards, and was perfect from within 40 yards, and in 90-degree weather.
Such numbers would surely turn the heads or grab the attention of scouts out there. Yet, it’s been a frustrating time for Maciel since he graduated from Enid.
But his confidence has not wavered.
“Coaches don’t want to waste money (scholarships) on a kicker, but when they lose, it’s like, ‘oh man, I wish we had a kicker,”’ Maciel said, reflecting on why he remains sidelined. -
Hearing delayed in Gundy, contractor suit
It’s the case of contractor and the coach.
On March 21, 2011, trim carpenter Brent Lee Loveland of Choctaw wore a gray shirt with red lettering that read “Oklahoma Baseball” to Oklahoma State University football coach Mike Gundy’s home, which was under construction near Stillwater.
Gundy and his wife, Kristen, found the shirt offensive and the OSU coach fired Loveland on the spot.
Loveland filed a breach of contract lawsuit in August 2011 against the Gundys in Payne County District Court.
A pretrial hearing scheduled Monday in Logan County has been delayed until July 29 or 30, Loveland’s attorney Edward White of Edmond said Wednesday. -
