I-S drops from tournament

Cardinals end season for T-Birds

By Greg Seubert


Last year, the Iola-Scandinavia baseball team got hot in the WIAA regionals and sectionals and made the program’s first-ever trip to state.

A return trip to Grand Chute isn’t in the cards for the Thunderbirds, as they lost their tournament opener 5-3 to Pacelli Tuesday, May 29, at Taylor Field.

Winning pitcher Nate Helms held the T-Birds to three runs over 6 1/3 innings in a Division 3 regional semifinal.

The second-seeded T-Birds had a bye in the first round of the tournament, while the third-seeded Cardinals opened postseason play May 24 with a 9-4 win over Manawa.

Pacelli will play top seeded Amherst at 4:30 p.m. Wednesday, May 30, for a regional championship in Amherst.
