Garden City Buffs welcome Scott City transfer Kasper in big win
Garrett Kasper moved from Scott City to Garden City and tossed 5 2/3 innings of no hit ball in an 11-3 victory over Dodge City. He allowed three runs and four hits early before closing strong, saying the 6A level offers tougher competition and better facilities.
