Weekend roundup across the American Legion
The offense was sparked by Landon Kilibarda, who drove in a run with a sacrifice fly, and Lathen Nipple, who added an RBI sacrifice bunt, underscoring a balanced attack.
The win lifted Post 59 to a 7-3 record, though the team has stumbled of late, dropping three of four games at the Battle of Omaha tournament.
