Tabor baseball wins tourney

The Tabor baseball team won the KCAC tournament championship this weekend after three consecutive battles with Friends University.

The Bluejays won the opening round game Thursday against Bethany College 6-3, before defeating Friends 9-3 Friday. The Falcons emerged from the loser bracket of the double elimination tournament, needing to defeat the Bluejays twice to win the championship.

They succeeded in the first game, rallying in the final inning for a 3-2 upset. Tabor controlled the second game though, winning 19-7. The Bluejays play next on Monday in the opening round of the NAIA national tournament at Hobart-Detter Field in Hutchinson.
