Le Mars (11-15/3-8) 12, Spencer 2, six innings

LE MARS — Brook Berkenpas drove in a pair of runs and threw a complete-game five-hitter to lead Le Mars to a 12-2, six inning victory over Spencer Monday night in a make-up Lakes Conference softball match-up at the Bulldog Complex.  Le Mars plated four runs in the first inning, two on a Christina Konz single and Emily Carlson keyed a six-run second inning with a two-run double as the Lady Bulldogs built a 10-0 lead after two innings.  Kady Leusink had her second RBI single of the night in the bottom of the sixth inning to end the game on the ‘Ten-Run Rule’.  The Lady Bulldogs improve to 11-and-15 for the season and 3-and-8 in the Lakes Conference.

CLASS 1A REGIONALS

LE MARS — Trinity Christian escaped a bases-loaded jam in the bottom of the seventh inning Monday to nail down a 7-6 up-set win over Gehlen Catholic in the opening night of 1A Regional softball play at the Riverview Complex.  It was only the third tournament win in the eight-year history of the Tiger’s program and their first win against the Lady Jays in nine meetings between the two War Eagle rivals.  Ashley Van Egdom’s two-run single snapped a 3-all tie and keyed a four-run fourth inning that put the Tigers in front 7-3.  Sydney Livermore’s three-run double in the fifth closed the gap to 7-6 but the Jays would get no closer.  Gehlen, who ends the season at 12-and-16, stranded eleven base runners.

ESTHERVILLE — Jacob Bosch threw a complete game three-hitter for Estherville/Lincoln Central Monday night to pitch the Midgets to a 3-1 victory over Le Mars in Lakes Conference baseball action at Estherville.  The loss ends the Lakes Conference title hopes for the defending champion Bulldogs as they fall two games in back of the league-leading Midgets.  Bosch fanned nine Bulldog batters and limited Le Mars to singles by Gabe Eckstaine, Ote Albrecht and Carter Arens.  Trey Jacobson’s two-run single keyed a three-run fifth inning that erased a 1-0 Bulldog lead.  Logan Lancaster took the loss for Le Mars.  The Bulldogs fall to 11-and-13 for the season and 7-and-4 in the Lakes Conference.

MARCUS — Zack Bonstetter had a two-run single in the second inning and Jordan Marks delivered a two-run hit an inning later as MMCRU built a 4-0 lead after three innings and went on to beat Gehlen Catholic 4-2 Monday night in a make-up War Eagle Conference baseball game in Marcus. The Jays countered with single runs in the fifth and sixth innings on RBI’s by Colin Budden and Xavier Roberts.  Budden took the loss on the mound despite giving up just five hits.  The loss drops Gehlen to 7-and-14 for the season and 4-and-7 in the W-E-C.  The Royals improve to 12-and-7.

Le Mars (12-15/4-8) 6, Storm Lake 5

STORM LAKE — Kady Leusink had three hits and drove in two runs to lead Le Mars to a 6-5 Lakes Conference softball win at Storm Lake Tuesday night.  The game was a make-up from an earlier postponement.  Le Mars spotted the Tornados a 4-0 lead before scoring three runs in the fourth and two in the fifth to take a 5-4 lead.  Leusink tied the game in the fifth with a RBI double and Katelyn Raymond’s RBI ground out put the Lady Dogs in front to stay.  Leusink added a RBI single in the top of the seventh to stretch the lead to 6-4.  Storm Lake rallied in their half of the seventh for one run but Brook Berkenpas recorded a strike out to end the game and preserve the victory.  Berkenpas threw a complete game for Le Mars, allowing ten hits but only one walk and five strike outs.  The Lady Bulldogs closed out the regular season at 12-and-15 with a 4-and-8 Lakes Conference mark.  They begin 4A Regional play Thursday against Bishop Heelan at the Morningside Softball Complex in Sioux City at 5:30.

CLASS 4A REGIONAL QUARTERFINALS

SIOUX CITY — Le Mars took advantage of Bishop Heelan’s regular pitcher being out with a bad back and worked over a pair of lightly used freshman pitchers to beat the No. 12 Crusaders 9-3 in the 4A Regional softball tournament Thursday evening at the Morningside Softball Complex.  Brook Berkenpas overcame a shaky start to retire 12 of the final 14 batters of the game to earn a complete game victory.  Berkenpas walked five batters and surrendered four of the Crusaders six hits in the first three innings as Heelan led 3-2 going into the fourth.  The Lady Bulldogs took the lead with two runs in the fourth and continued to pepper the scoreboard with runs over the final five innings.  Berkenpas had three hits and drove in three runs and Annie Ellis reached base in all five of her at-bats.  Grace Milbrodt finished with a pair of RBI’s.  Brooke Haage had the go-ahead single in the fourth.  Le Mars takes a 13-and-15 record and three-game winning streak into Saturday’s semifinals at No. 15 Sergeant Bluff-Luton.

LE MARS — No. 6 (3A) Harlan improved to 25-and-3 for the season with a doubleheader sweep of Le Mars Friday in baseball action at the Bulldog Complex.  The first game was a pitcher’s duel between the aces of both pitching staffs, Brett Sears for Harlan and Gabe Eckstaine for Le Mars.  Sears allowed one hit through five innings with ten strike outs before turning the ball over to Riley Kohles for the final two innings.  The two combined on a four-hitter with 12 strike outs.  Eckstaine took the loss, allowing five hits, five walks and seven strike outs before Logan Lancaster worked the final two innings.  Luke Schaben had two hits and two RBI’s for Harlan.  In Game 2, it was a slugfest with Harlan prevailing 14-10.  The two teams combined for 25 hits.  The Cyclones used a six-run second inning to build an early 9-2 lead.  It was 13-8 after five innings before Harlan scored a run in the seventh and Le Mars countered with a pair of runs before the rally fizzled.  Joey Moser had a home run and a double for the Cyclones and drove in three runs.  Le Mars got three hits and two RBI’s from Brandon Hager.  Ote Albrecht and Logan Lancaster also drove in a pair runs for the Bulldogs.  Le Mars used five pitcher’s in the game with starter Alec Dreckman taking the loss.  Le Mars has now dropped six straight games to fall to 11-and-17.  The Dogs wrap up the regular season with home games Monday and Tuesday against Boyden-Hull/Rock Valley and Denison-Schleswig.

CLASS 4A REGIONAL SEMIFINALS

SERGEANT BLUFF — No. 15 Sergeant Bluff-Luton scored seven runs in their final two at-bats to break open a tight game and the Warriors ended the 2018 softball season for Le Mars, 12-3, in the 4A Regional semifinals Saturday night in Sergeant Bluff.  Sophomore shortstop, Mackenzie Foley, led a 16-hit attack for S-B-L with three hits and a walk and five RBI’s.  Foley’s two-run triple in the first keyed a three-run inning that erased a 1-0 Le Mars lead.  Foley added a run-scoring line-drive single in the third that struck Bulldog pitcher Brook Berkenpas in the leg and nearly sent her to the sidelines.  Berkenpas did continue after a lengthy stop in the action.  Foley capped her big night with a two-run, opposite-field home run to spark a four-run fifth that extended a 5-3 lead to 9-3 and all but dashed the Le Mars hopes.  The Warriors added three more in the sixth and nearly won the game on the ‘Ten-Run Rule’.  Madelyn Mogenson had four hits and the Warriors successfully stole nine bases.  Bradee Bouman allowed just five hits, including a RBI-double by Brooke Haage.  Le Mars closes out a 13-and-16 campaign.
