Glenbrook’s Savannah Mangrum hurled a three-hit gem Saturday, shutting out the defending state champions Holy Savior Menard 6-0 and sending the Lady Apaches to the LHSAA Division IV Select semifinals in Sulphur.

A six-run explosion in the third inning was all it took to put the number two seed Lady Apaches into a Friday matchup
with 14-seed St. Frederick at Frasch Park.

After Holy Savior’s starter walked the bases loaded in the third, Ellie Earnhardt drove in two runs with a single and Hallie Sutton followed with a run-scoring double. Chloe Gregg’s sacrifice fly pushed across one more and RBI singles by Kenzie Smith and

Anna Grace Vining capped the scoring.

Earnhardt and Smith each collected two hits for the Lady Apaches while Vining, Sutton and Gracie Heard added one hit apiece.

Kaylee Methvin took the loss for Holy Savior Menard’s Lady Eagles. She went six innings, surrendering six runs on seven hits, striking out four and walking three. Addy Wright went 2-for-3 at the plate for Holy Savior.

Glenbrook upped its record to 24-6 on the season with Saturday’s win. St. Frederick, which knocked off sixth-seeded Sacred Heart by a 10-8 score to advance, comes into the tournament with a 20-13 record.
