It was a hot Memorial Day in Chatfield, and Section 1AA didn't disappoint. Caledonia took down LaCrescent with a walk-off single from Mason Staggemeyer to win 3-2, and then Plainview-Elgin-Millville took down the Lancers in the elimination game with a 5-3 win.

It was fireworks early Monday afternoon as the Lancers took a 2-0 lead in the top of the first inning against the Warriors. Yet, the Warriors were not backing down despite the warm temperatures.

Andrew Goergen hit a double and was knocked in by an RBI single from Eric Augedahl to make the score 2-1, the Warriors tied it up when Evan Denstad drove in Goergen again.

The game was tied at 2 headed to the bottom of the 7th when Mason Staggemeyer hit a single to left that drove in Payton Schott for the walk-off winner 3-2 and the Section 1AA East Subsection championship!
