Avon Lakers vs St. Martin Martins Class C State Tournament 2022

The Avon Lakers edged the St. Martin Martins 2-1 in 11 innings in a suspended game played at 2 sites on 2 days.  After the Martins took a 1-0 lead in Faribault on Saturday night after an inning and a half, heavy rain forced a suspension of play.  The game resumed on Sunday afternoon in Meisville with that 1-0 score holding up until the top of the 7th when Elian Mezquita drilled an rbi double off the left field wall to plate pinch-runner Cody Stich and tie the game 1-1.  In the top of the 11th, Caleb Curry smashed a 1-out solo Homer to put Avon up 2-1.  In the bottom of the 11th, Matt Swanson, a draftee from Upsala, walked 2 and gave up a single as St. Martin loaded the bases with 2 outs, but Swanson got a game-ending pop out to Ryan Janzen at 2nd to send the Lakers to the Sweet 16.
