North Battleford cruises to a championship at home
The bats were swinging early and often, at least for one team in the provincial championship.
The North Battleford Beavers won the 2016 Midget AA Tier 1 Provincial Championship after beating the Humboldt Dodgers 12-0 at Beaver Lions Stadium in their hometown on Sunday, July 24.
Beavers coach Mike Hudec said he was really proud of his squad and thought they had more in the tank than other teams.
“I think in some cases when it comes to tournaments like this you have teams that run out of pitching,” Hudec said. “We’re fortunate that we are very deep in our pitching staff. We got to put out probably our best pitcher and I don’t think they got to start their top guy and we were able to get to him early.”
