The Waukon baseball team picked up its first win of the season in a week that resulted in just three games played due to some weather interference. That win came in a big way, 18-4 in five innings, over MFL/MarMac Wednesday, June 1, but was sandwiched by a pair of scoreless losses, 15-0 in four innings at Class 3A defending State Champion Waverly-Shell Rock Tuesday, May 31 and 12-0 in five innings to Kee at home Friday, June 3. That Waverly-Shell Rock date was supposed to be a doubleheader, but stormy weather only allowed one game and forced postponement of the other to a June 20 home date for the Indians with the highly-regarded Go-Hawks.
Now holding a 1-4 season record, the Indians were next slated to host Charles City Tuesday, June 7 for a Northeast Iowa Conference doubleheader before playing at Turkey Valley Wednesday, June 8 and then hosting Decorah Friday, June 10. The baseball Tribe will then play three consecutive road dates to start a busy road schedule next week, including a doubleheader at Oelwein Monday, June 13, at Osage Tuesday, June 14 and at New Hampton Wednesday, June 15 before traveling to Crestwood Friday, June 17.
