Knights Baseball Loses Regular-Season Finale

The St. Michael-Albertville baseball team concluded its regular season with a loss on Thursday and now joins the Knights golf squads in preparing for the postseason.

Baseball: St. Cloud Tech 2, Knights 1

A 2-1 loss at St. Cloud Tech sent the St. Michael-Albertville baseball team into the playoffs with a 12-8 overall record.

The Knights logged six hits to Tech's four, but managed just a lone run in the second inning as Tyler Dallum drove home Dain Krutzig to give the visitors a temporary 1-0 lead.

Tech took control of the contest with a two-run fourth inning and never looked back to make a hard-luck loser of pitcher Jacob Dzubay, who went the distance and gave up just one earned run while striking out five and walking two.

STMA now moves on to the Section 8AAA Tournament, with seedings and matchups to be announced on Friday and first-round games to being May 30.
