This was actually a very good ball game. Buckhorn took a 1-0 lead but Estill tied it up but Buckhorn would re-take the lead 2-1...Estill would plate 3 to take a 4-2 lead going into the bottom of the 6th when they would plate 3 more runs to take a 7-2 lead. Buckhorn would get runners on in the 7th but couldn't push anything across. Estill got their seniors back from senior trip around the 4th inning of the game.
