Badger nine third at state

May 22, 2011
The Bonners Ferry Badger baseball team had one of their most exciting season finishes in years, knocking off Buhl and Kimberly before falling to Payette in the 3A State Championships held in Ontario, Oregon.

South Fremont fell to Payette in game 1, 11-0, while the Badgers, capitalizing on errors, downed Buhl, state champions last year, 12-6, in game 2.

The Badgers fell to Payette, 9-8 in game seven, falling into the consolation bracket, where they knocked off Kimberly, 15-5, to take third place in the championships.

Frutiland, who've held the title three of the last four years, earned this year's state championship, going undefeated in tournament play and ending their season with a record of 26-1. Payette, shut out in the title game 16-0 by the Grizzlies, finished second at state for the second year in a row.
