Eau Claire to take on De Pere for American Legion baseball title

Talk about it

Eau Claire will face De Pere today (Wednesday) for the championship of the state American Legion’s Triple-“A” baseball tournament in La Crosse.

Eau Claire remained unbeaten in the double-elimination tourney by eliminating La Crosse 10-4 Tuesday night.

De Pere lost to Eau Claire earlier Tuesday 8-7 and if De Pere wins today, the two teams will play again since Eau Claire would only have one loss.

Meanwhile, Onalaska won the Double-“A” Legion tournament with an 11-1 rout of Kaukauna Tuesday night in Merrill.

Andy Mills of Onalaska was the MVP, and his team finished 30-6 in Legion play.

The Single-“A” state championship will be decided this evening in Lomira, as Horicon takes on Clintonville. Horicon suffered its first tournament loss Tuesday 4-1 to Marathon. Clintonville then eliminated Marathon 4-0.
