For a large part, last week was unfortunate for NRHEG baseball. But it also included an impressive win.
The Panthers made a long road trip east on Tuesday and came home from Zumbrota-Mazeppa — head coach Drew Paukert’s alma mater — with a 4-1 triumph.
It was sandwiched between losses to United South Central and WEM, dropping NRHEG’s record to 4-8 overall and 2-6 in the Gopher Conference after a 0-5 start.
Dempsey Tucker was the story at Zumbrota. The senior ace pitched a complete game, allowing the Cobras one earned run on three hits, striking out two and walking three.

“This was a great meet for us, going up against the biggest and toughest teams from Section 1A,” said coach Duey Ferber. “Byron and Stewartville are powerhouses. Our 4x200 came away with a win and a T-shirt.”
Byron won with 181 points, with Stewartville second at 138. The Panthers had 38.
