Thomas More Prep-Marian honored senior duo Austin Gilbert and Adler Brown the best way they know how, raking in the runs and locking down a huge home victory over 6A opponent Garden City Tuesday afternoon.

Regular season contests wrapped up Friday night for the Western Athletic Conference, Hays concluding their season against Junction City, Great Bend traveling to Garden City.
