MOSES LAKE – After powering through the first three rounds of the 14U Babe Ruth North Washington State Tournament with high-scoring wins, the 14U Columbia Basin River Dogs gutted out a 4-1 win over the Stilly Venom in the finals to advance to next week’s regional round.
“That’s these boy’s goals,” River Dog Head Coach Jaret Fulbright said. “They told me they had unfinished business, and that they wanted to go back to regionals and get it done this time.” .
