On Saturday, the Saints only managed seven hits in the game and were led by Jason Wald, who had two hits and an RBI. Brent Schloe had a double and run scored and Steve Newman added a hit and the other run scored for the Saints. Chad Schwegel was the story once again, though, as he pitched eight more shutout innings to pick up the win on the mound. He allowed just three hits, two walks, and struck out eight while running his streak of not allowing an earned run to 29 innings. Josh Vorpahl, a draftee from HR Pesty's Snappers, picked up his second save of the regions.
The Saints struck in the bottom of the fourth inning after Schloe was hit by a pitch with one out. After another out, Ryan Stark singled and Wald singled to score Schloe from second and take a 1-0 lead. The Saints added their other run in the fifth when Steve Newman singled, stole second, went to third on a wild pitch, and scored on a dropped fly ball. In the bottom of the eighth, the game was suspended due to rain and lightning, but picked up where it was left off on Sunday night. The Cyclones got their first two runners on in the ninth and had runners on second and third with one out, but Wald's great defensive play on a ground ball at shortstop allowed just one run to score and the Saints to get the second out of the inning. Vorpahl struck out the last batter of the game to save the game for the Saints and clinch their second straight state tournament appearance.
