High expectations met by 11U Muenster Red Sox
It’s been lots of winning for the 11U Muenster Red Sox baseball team not only this season, but last year as well.
The team most recently went to Weyburn and dominated the provincial Tier 1 tournament going 3-0 in pool play, and then going on to defeat the host team to set up a finals matchup with Unity.
Head Coach Derek Rude said it was a back and forth, tight game. The Red Sox were up by two runs heading into the seventh inning, but Unity scored five to go up by three before Meunster tied the game again and forced an extra inning. In the extra inning, Unity scored one run, opening the door for Muenster in the last half inning where they scored two runs to win the gold medal.
The Red Sox outscored their opponents 60-27 over their five games, something that Rude said came just from things coming alive.
