NORTH STAR ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION

CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES – The top seeded MAYVILLE STATE COMETS had to face the Cinderella 6 seeds – the DICKINSON STATE BLUE HAWKS – for the NSAA Championship.

In Game Two Mayville State converted a 1-0 1st Inning lead into a 3-1 edge in the 3rd and 7-1 in the 7th on their way to an 8-1 victory. Tyler Leibert pitched all 9 Iron Man Innings for the Comets. * CONGRATULATIONS TO THE COMETS, THE 2015 CHAMPIONS OF THE NORTH STAR ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION * Continue reading →
