In the bottom of the 2nd, Taylen Hansen got a leadoff walk, Kooper Krummel was hit by a pitch and after Calvin Parker struck out, Miller hit Lamp with a pitch to load the bases. Wheatley then drove a pitch for a 2 run double and while he was in a rundown, Lamp came in to score to make it 5-0 Vikings.
AHSTW got another run in the third with Dresen on third base, Miller was ruled to commit a balk to bring the 6th run home.
Audubon got a two single from Dawson Miller in the first inning; Kodi Lansman got a 2 out infield single in the 4th. In the top of the 7th, Lamp gave up a 2 out single to Collin Nelson and Brody Schultes smacked a double to left but Lamp got a strike out to end the game.
