We would like to thank everyone for coming out last night for the CRVL-NSL All-Star game. Of course it had to rain a little bit just to remind us that it is June 2024 but after that the night was great. Thanks to all the fans, the volunteers, the players, umpires and sponsors!
The Lakers would like to thank all of our fans for their support again this season! We also want to thank the WBA and all the volunteers for their efforts at Lions Field, in the concession stand, on the field, taking tickets and in the press box. Thank You all!!!
We will be recognized for our 2024 State Championship between the 1st and 2nd quarter of the Waconia Wildcats homecoming football game on October 4th! Also, a good way to come out and support some of our current Lakers and the rest of the Wildcat Football team!

A few days late but we would be remiss to not recognize the Lakers friends/fans/family that supports our team! Thank you to those that attend and cheer, help with concessions, pressbox, mow/maintain the field, pickup garbage, mop the restrooms. We need and love you all!
Lakers managed to win a game the day after Hendu’s wedding, no small task. It did help that Owen Amrhein was behaving last night and went 3-3 + a walk, 2 RBI, 4 runs scored and threw a guy out at the plate to lead the Lakers to the 11-1 win at New Germany. Simon gets the win.
Lakers get the win in New Germany.

Lakers eek out a 2-1 win vs
@WatertownDevils
. Bullis gets the win and Naughton provides the 3 inning save. 4 consecutive singles get the needed runs for the Lakers with Derek Martin delivering the big go-ahead RBI. Good game with great plays by both teams.
Naughton deals a one hit, No walk gem as the Lakers take game 1 against Norwood by the score of 6-0. Kalenberg HR, Amrhein and Martin with big 2 RBI doubles, Amrhein and Stoddard also doing it with the leather with back to back diving grabs in the outfield. Game 2 on Thursday!
Lakers get the opening day Win at Hamburg today. Simon, Bullis, Naughton, Olson and Buhr all log innings on the mound. Simon and Hendricks go yard! Schiffman misses a bomb by an inch as it hits the top rail and bounces back.
Played through a light rain for a couple innings and then got to see some very cool colors in the skies after the rain stopped. Came out on top 7-3 against
