In their other tournament game Saturday, the Lady Vikes lost 4-3 to Loyd Star.

Loyd Star scored three runs in the fourth inning, including two on a single by Madison Jones, and scored the winning run on a dropped fly ball with two outs in the sixth. The game ended after that because of a tournament time limit.

Warren Central will play a key Division 4-6A game Tuesday at 6:15 p.m. at Clinton.
