BELL BUCKLE — After a string of losses over the past week, the Cascade Lady Champions got back to the winning side on Tuesday night with an 11-0 mercy rule win over the Lady Knights as Brianna Horn tossed her third no-hitter of the season and added seven strikeouts along the way. 
Cascade (7-10) notched 15 hits with 10 RBIs on the day with eight different players recording a hit. 
They got off to a hot start in the bottom of the first inning by scoring seven runs on seven hits to take an early 7-0 lead. 
Kyndal Bolden, Christina Bilbro, and Caitlin Fannin knocked three consecutive singles, and Fannin’s scored Bolden from third for the first run of the game. 
Bilbro went 3-for-3 at the plate for the Lady Champions. 
Two at-bats later, Hannah Vandiver sent a high fly ball to center field which gave Bilbro the opportunity to tag up from third base and score for a 2-0 lead. 
The Lady Champs rallied with two outs to score five more runs in the inning behind a two RBI-double from Alivia Fanni, a two RBI-triple from Alayna Cruse, and an RBI-single from Ella Thompson. 
In the top of the second inning, the Lady Knights had runners on first and second after being hit by pitch and walked, but Horn tightened up and fanned the next two batters to end the inning. 
Cascade plated another run in the bottom half to make it 8-0 as Vandiver grounded out to shortstop, but Bilbro was on her toes and was able to score. 
An inning later, Thompson laid down a sacrifice bunt to score Alivia Fannin from third, and the Lady Champs took a 9-0 lead which quickly turned into an 11-0 lead in the bottom of the fourth inning when Horn stole third after being walked, and scored two pitches later on a passed ball before Claire Perry singled to score Vandiver.
Horn and the Lady Champs put the Lady Knights down 1-2-3 in the top of the fifth inning to end the game as Horn struck out the first two batters she faced.
