The QCBA 11U Red team finished up a fun season of baseball. They started practice in early May and prepped to play area teams from Maple River, Waseca, Albert Lea, USC, St. Clair, and JWP during an eight-week season. 

This team of determined young men were rarely out of a game. The boys finished the season 7-7-1 and really only had two losses that they didn't have a legitimate chance to win. Every player on the squad showed great improvement from start to finish and proved to be a coachable and enthusiastic teammate.

The 12U QCBA team played three games last week, going 2-1 to push their record to 5-6. On June 27, the boys beat Waseca KC 12-8 in New Richland. Severin Eads, Walker Thompson, and Alex Dobberstein combined pitching for the home team. Ulrich Woollard and Ralph Roesler each had two hits and Jack Olson had a double along with singles from Nik Petsinger and Eads. 

On June 29, the boys traveled to Owatonna and won 12-4. Tyrone Wilson and Clay Stenzel pitched. Olson was hot at the plate, picking up a double and three singles. Wilson had a triple and a single. Thompson cranked a double and Matthew Mueller, Ben Schoenrock, Eads, and Stenzel added hits.
