Elrosa takes down Lake Henry

After taking last year off, the call of the baseball diamond was too great to resist for Aaron Vogt, shown playing at first for the Saints on Friday night against Spring Hill.

The Elrosa Saints handed Lake Henry a 3-2 loss on Sunday afternoon to keep their slim hopes of a Region playoff appearance alive. Brady Weller pitched seven innings (five hits) to pick up the win for the Saints, who improved to 3-5 (4th) in the Stearns County League North standings. Matt Middendorf and Ethan Vogt had two hits each to lead their team at the plate. Lake Henry is 5-4 (2nd) in the SCL-North division.

Elrosa's next action is this Friday, when they host Greenwald in an 8:00pm game at Saints Field. Greenwald picked up their first win of the season against Farming on Sunday by a 5-2 score. The Flames were in second place in the SCL-South before that loss.
