The North Platte First Nationals got shutout by Kearney 7-0 on Tuesday in Kearney.

Kearney had a balanced approach at the plate by getting nine hits from seven different players and Peyton Pocock pitched masterfully from the mound. Pocock pitched the complete game shutout and gave up just four hits while striking out three batters. Kearney scored two runs in each of the second and third innings and three runs in the fifth to comprise all of the game’s runs.

North Platte (20-11) managed just four hits in the game. Alec Wesslund led the way by going 1-3 with a double. Dalton Pflughaupt took the loss on the mound for the First Nationals. He gave up seven runs on eight hits in four and one-third innings. Pflughaupt also struck out three batters and walked two. Darian Allberry pitched the final one and two-third innings and gave up just one hit and one walk while striking out one batter.
