“Tough day at the ball field today,” commented Fergus Falls Head Coach Trevor Larson. “We didn’t play good enough defensively and we fell behind in the count against a very good hitting team. Our at bats started to get better as the day went on. I am pleased that we had better energy in game two and didn’t quit playing. We need to continue to show up ready to play hard, regardless of who our opponent is.”
