The thrills didn’t slow much in the opening game on July 23. Grafton hung on to beat Beaver Dam, 5-4.
The next day, La Crosse beat Grafton, 6-2, and on Sunday, July 25, Delafield beat the Patriots in a 9-8 walkoff to end their season in the double-elimination tournament.
La Crosse went 5-0 to win the tournament.
The Patriots earned three tournament honors.
Colin Halderman was named the leading hitter, and he and Jack Sommers were named to the state tournament team.
