Blackduck wins 8A East title

BEMIDJI — For the third time in the past five years — but the first since 2013 — the Blackduck High School baseball team earned the right to call itself the Sub-Section 8A East champions.

The Drakes (13-10) beat Fosston 18-5 during a rain-soaked five-inning game Wednesday afternoon at Bemidji State.

“We struggled defensively a little in the beginning but we rallied, and we’re looking forward to continuing our run,” Drakes head coach Dwight Kalvig said.
