Austin Greer stroked five hits and smashed two of Notre Dame's six home runs as the Bulldogs routed New Madrid County Central 25-1 on the road Friday.
Jake Pewitt, Jimmy Obermark, Dylan Drury and Brent Renfroe each hit one home run. Renfroe's was a grand slam, the first of his career.
Meanwhile, Drury was strong on the mound. He took a perfect game into the fifth inning, but it was broken up when a New Madrid County batter homered.
Drury tossed a complete game, giving up the one hit while striking out 11.
Notre Dame finished its regular season with a 23-1 record.
