Marysville stepped outside of the Northeast Kansas League on Tuesday night and traveled to Beatrice (NE) for a contest and picked up the 7-2 win. 

Both teams tallied a run in the second inning and Marysville took the lead scoring three runs in the top of the third as Jayton Haggard blasted a three-run homer in the frame. Beatrice cut the lead to 4-2 with a run in the fifth but Marysville added insurance runs in the sixth with one run and two more in the seventh to secure the 7-2 win.
