THE BGMR GATORS WON TWO GAMES AT THE SOFTBALL STATE TOURNAMENT YESTERDAY, FIRST BEATING MENAHGA 11-1 AND THEN TAKING DOWN THIRD-SEED MOOSE LAKE/WILLOW RIVER BY A SCORE OF 2-1. THAT PUTS THE GATORS INTO THE CHAMPIONSHIP TODAY AT 5:30. THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BRACKET WAS DISRUPTED WHEN UN-SEEDED UPSALA BEAT TOP-SEED RANDOLPH IN THE OPENING ROUND. 5-SEED EDGERTON WILL BE THE CHAMPIONSHIP OPPONENT AFTER WINS OVER BETHLEHEM ACADEMY AND UPSALA.
A BIT OF A SURPRISE IN SECTION 8A BASEBALL AS FOSSTON BEAT SACRED HEART TWICE YESTERDAY TO COME FROM THE ELIMINATION BRACKET AND CLAIM THE SECTION TITLE.
ROSEAU BOYS GOLFER MAX WILSON HAS BEEN NAMED A FINALIST FOR MR. GOLF. HE BECOMES THE FIRST RAMS GOLFER TO EVER BE A FINALIST FOR THE AWARD.
THE MINNESOTA TWINS HAVE JOINED THE REST OF THE DIVISION IS SLIPPING BELOW .500, NOW AT 31-32, AFTER A 3-GAME SWEEP AT THE HANDS OF THE TAMPA BAY RAYS, FALLING YESTERDAY 4-2. IT’S NOW A FIVE GAME SKID FOR MINNESOTA, BUT THEY STILL OWN A 1.5 GAME LEAD ON CLEVELAND, 3.5 ON CHICAGO, AND 3.5 ON DETROIT.
MATTHEW TKACHUK WAS THE REGULATION HERO AND CARTER VERHAEGHE WAS THE OVERTIME HERO AS FLORIDA RALLIED FOR A 3-2 WIN OVER VEGAS IN GAME 3 OF THE STANLEY CUP FINALS. TKACHUK SCORED THE GAME TYING GOAL WITH JUST OVER TWO MINUTES LEFT AND THE GOALTENDER PULLED. VERHAEGHE WON IT ON A WRIST SHOT OVER THE GLOVE IN THE FIRST OVERTIME SESSION. VEGAS STILL HAS THE 2-1 SERIES EDGE.
THE VIKINGS RELEASED RUNNINGBACK DALVIN COOK. HE WAS SET TO COUNT FOR ABOUT $14 MILLION THIS COMING SEASON, AND WITH RUNNINGBACK DEPTH THE TEAM HAS DECIDED THAT PRICE TAG JUST WASN’T WORTH IT.
