seniors, putting on a Tiger uniform for the last time today. Take an extra look around - at the jersey, your teammates, your parents. Take a deep breath in. Play catch just a little bit longer. Soak it in boys.
Go play your hearts out.
Tigers sweep the double header at Park 4-1 and 6-1. Conrad only allowed 1 hit in the first game. Savisik and Mach combine to get the job done in game two. Tigers record now sits at 5-0.

Tigers come out on top again tonight 14-10 over Excelsior 2. Pitching combination of Lund, Baldwin and Rasmusson get the job done! Back in action Thursday night at Eastview!
Players, after thinking about it (and you guys brought it up last night) dress pants, dress shirt WITH a TIE for the banquet tonight. We can argue about this at check-in, but the argument will be pretty short! Thank you
Wow these substate playoffs have been wild! Tigers claw their way to another late win 5-4 over Park. We will play tomorrow at noon vs Woodbury in the substate 5 final. Gotta get two!

Tigers go 4-1 on the weekend but come up just short in advancing to the sweet 16. Congrats to our pool winner Wayzata. So proud of how our guys competed in one of, if not, the toughest pool in the tournament!
I’m so excited, honored and blessed to share that I officially signed with Minnesota State, Mankato to continue my baseball and academic career! Huge thanks to my family, coaches, and friends that pushed me to do my best!
