The Bandits lived up to their nickname and became state champions for the first time in program history last week after beating the Laurel Dodgers 4-2.
The Glacier Twins won a loser-out contest to once again face Mission Valley Mariners in the Class A West District Tournament Championship Game, where they avenged an earlier 11-10 loss for the district title on Sunday, July 23, in Polson. The Twins held off a late Mariner rally as Mission Valley’s bats still proved powerful. The two teams advance to this week’s State A Tournament in Laurel.
