ST. JAMES – Play in the Division 2 Sub-State American Legion baseball tournament resumes Friday at Veterans Field.
Jackson is the final undefeated team in the eight team double-elimination event, having won three games last weekend.
The Tarantulas defeated St. James 12-9 in eight innings, RTR 5-3 and Luverne 9-8.
Two loser’s bracket games will be played on Friday with RTR facing St. James at 5 p.m. with the winner playing Luverne about 30 minutes after the conclusion of the first game.
Jackson is waiting for the survivor of Friday’s games in the championship round at 11 a.m. Saturday. If the team coming out of the loser’s bracket would beat Post 130, a second championship game would follow.
The Sub-State champion advances to the state Division II tournament at Luverne next weekend.
As host, Luverne is guaranteed a berth in the state tournament. If Luverne advances to the Sub-State finals vs. Jackson, both teams would advance to state and play a first-round game next Friday.
