Disputed Call Ends Ottawa's Tournament Run in Semifinal Loss
In a tense American Legion District II semifinal, Ottawa fell 2 to 1 to Olathe after a balk ruling against pitcher Motelet sparked a heated argument. Motelet was ejected for leaving the mound following the dispute, and Olathe capitalized with the decisive run after a failed attempt to tag Greene. Ottawa led 1-0 entering the fifth inning as Haworth singled, stole second, and scored on a wild pitch.
