Claremont Seasons End

Claremont Seasons End

    Claremont Legion and Junior Legion baseball seasons both came to an end in regional tournament play.
    The Legion nine lost to Clark-Willow Lake 9-1 and Warner-Ipswich-Northwes13-2 in the Region 6B tournament played in Clark July 23-24.  In the Region 1B Junior Legion tournament in Sisseton last week Tuesday and Wednesday the Honkers dropped decisions to Clark 11-0, Sisseton 8-1, and Groton 12-2 in round-robin play.  The two Claremont squads ended up with a combined record of 10-17.
    “We played a lot of teams older than us and were competitive against a lot of those clubs,” said Claremont coach Joe Gustafson.  “The guys get along really well and it makes for a fun experience.”
    Seventeen of the team’s 20 players will return next season with just three players aging out - Will Schuller, Jesse Keough, and Tristan Leidholdt.

Lawmakers say the goal is to ensure an ambulance can respond when someone calls 911, but establishing the regions and determining how they would be funded could take years. Do you support creating regional ambulance service systems with state oversight and potential state funding?
