Mudcats Fall, 3 Other Cornbelt Teams Prep For Quarterfinals

In quarterfinal action at the 2020 State Amateur Tournament in Mitchell on Thursday night, the Mudcats of Dell Rapids were unable to keep pace with Alexandria in an 11-6 loss. The Angels jumped out to a 6-1 lead after four innings and used a four-run sixth inning to put the nail on the coffin. Dell Rapids rallied late, scoring three runs in the top of the ninth, but it was too little too late. Grant Olson and Jimmy Bauer both collected in two hits to lead Dells. Alexandria advanced to the semifinals, where they will face Winner/Colome. 

Coming up this evening, we will have a pair of games on KJAM Radio. Hartford/Humboldt Gamecocks will take on Canova in the third quarterfinal game of the tournament. Game time is set for 5:30 and the action can be heard on AM1390. Following will be Salem and Wynot, Nebraska. Game two will be 20-30 minutes after game one and will be on FM103.
