Royals win state title in Sioux Falls!!

All of us here at KWYR want to congratulate Coach Drew Weber and the Winner/Colome Royals on their Club Baseball State Championship victory yesterday! The Royals were able to defeat West Central by a final score of 5-4. Earlier in the day against Dell Rapids in their semifinal matchup, Winner/Colome was able to come from behind twice. The Royals were down 2-0 in the bottom of the seventh inning before they tied it up and sent the game into extra innings. In the 12th inning, Dell Rapids scored to make it 3-2 only to see the Royals tie it once against in the bottom half of the inning! Winner/Colome beat Dell Rapids in 13 innings on Kelly O’Bryan’s game winning single. In the championship game against West Central, Winner/Colome scored 4 runs in the first inning that ended up being the difference. West Central outhit Winner/Colome 7-2, but walks and errors added up for the Trojans.  Congratulations Royals, the 2016 Class ‘B’ State Champions!
