OKLAHOMA CITY — The Barton tennis team traveled to Oklahoma City for the ITA Fall Junior College Regionals. It is the only competitive meet of the fall season for the Cougars.
Barton took one single and one doubles entrant for each the men and women.
On the women’s side, sophomore Neus Torregrosa came in as the No. 2 seed. That gave her a bye in the opening round and in the second round, Torregrosa rolled to a 6-2, 6-3 win over Alena Macharova of Seward County.
Her event ended sooner that she would have liked as another Seward Saint ended it in the quarterfinals. Maria Aveiga defeated Torregrosa, 6-3, 6-4 in the quarters. Aveiga would then make it to the finals where she lost to Valentina Gonzalez of Seminole State (Okla).
Torregrosa teamed up with Shai Cartmill for doubles but weren’t able to compete due to an injury. Gonzalez again won the doubles portion with teammate Mariam Mujawimana for Seminole State.
For the men, sophomore Marcel Miasato competed in the singles bracket and teamed with Miquel Valle in doubles.
Miasato battled injury during the day, having to retire in the singles’ first round after battling Diego Freire of Seward most of the way. Freire led 7-5 and 5-4 when Miasato retired.
That injury kept him out of the rest of the day, forcing the doubles to team of Miasato and Valle to lose by walk over in the opening round of doubles.
Seward’s Nicolas Rousset won the regional in singles while Kevin Major and Marcus Walters of Seminole State won the doubles. They will advance to the ITA National Championships.

ARKANSAS CITY -- The Barton Cougar baseball team scored early and often plating 11 of its runs over the first four innings to upset No. 3 Cowley College 12-8 on Tuesday. The Cougars (21-8) have won four in a row over the Tigers (23-7). Barton plays Jayhawk West leader Colby at 1 p.m. Thursday at Lawson-Biggs Field. The Cougars travel to Colby Sunday. Tyler Janssen led the Cougars balanced offensive attack providing three of the Cougars six extra base hits on the afternoon, finishing 3-for-5 and single shy of the cycle. The freshman drove in four runs highlighted behind his fourth-inning three-run round tripper for his fourth of the year. Eight of Barton's nine in the lineup furnished a hit with Janssen being joined by Kyle Graves 3-for-6 day at the plate and RBI, as the duo combined for six of the Cougars 14 hits on the afternoon. Kyle Walker was second in runs produced, driving in two of his three runs during Barton's four run top of the second frame, finishing 2-for-5 at the dish with a walk. Rounding out the Cougars' multi-RBI performances was Ayden Hadley and Wyatt Yetter, each driving in two runs apiece. Hadley distributed his pair with a first inning double while Yetter added the final run of a three-run first on a groundout followed by a leadoff fourth inning blast for his first big fly of the season. Despite finishing 0-for-1 at the plate, Barrett Donaldson generated three of Barton's nine walks created with a run scored. Braden Hauschel earned a no-decision in his one-inning of work allowing three runs on two hits with a walk and strikeout. Eli Lang (1-0) notched his first collegiate victory tossing 4.1-innings in relief scattering seven hits and three runs with Landon Haines getting the final two outs of the sixth allowing one hit with a stirkeout. Andrew McCarthy tossed a scoreless seventh with a strikeout while operating around a pair of walks. Cade Kunz handled the eighth yielding two runs on a hit and collected a strikeout before handing off to Preston Golden for the ninth, as the sophomore locked it down
