Dell Rapids/Baltic Baseball Season Comes to an End

May 15, 2013 By

West Central defeated Dell Rapids/Baltic 5-2 in the first round of playoffs to advance. DR/Baltic was eliminated from the postseason and finished the year with a 5-3 record.

The game began as a pitcher’s duel. DR/Baltic starter Cody Nielsen struck out five in the first two scoreless innings. West Central starter Matt Johannsen blanked DR/Baltic through the first four innings.

Cody Nielsen

West Central scored first with two runs in the top of the third inning. Riley Danielsen doubled then Drew Maras and Andrew McMahon walked. Johannsen singled and both runners scored.

Mitch Roemen came on in relief of Nielsen and got DR/Baltic out the inning. However, West Central started the fourth with another double this time by Cameron Stone. An outfield error, sacrifice fly and double by Maras led to three runs and a 5-0 West Central lead.

DR/Baltic answered in the bottom half of the fourth. Beau Carpenter singled and scored from first on Roemen’s line drive double past the right fielder. Roemen advanced to third on the play at the plate and then scored on a wild pitch.

Neither team scored again as pitching and defense took over. Tanner Solberg came on in relief for DR/Baltic and blanked West Central for 2 2/3 innings. He allowed one hit and struck out four. West Central closer Gabe Wiezorek pitched the 7th and got all three hitters out to preserve a 5-2 win.

Pitchers from both teams each struck out 10 opposing hitters.

The win by West Central avenged two earlier season losses to DR/Baltic by scores of 6-1 and 3-0.

Two Quarrier Golfers Qualify for State

May 14, 2013 By

The Dell Rapids Quarrier girls golf team participated in the Region 1A Meet at Valley View Golf Course in Sisseton on Monday, May 13th.  The region meet consisted of eight teams of five players each.  Dell Rapids finished in 5th place with a total score of 483.  Madison won the meet with a 407.  Milbank finished second with 417, and Aberdeen Roncalli finished third with a 476.  All three of those teams will send their entire team to the state meet in Milbank on May 20 and May 21.  Individually for Dell Rapids, Aleza Kirschenmann finished 12th and qualified for state with a round of 111.  April Tomes finished in 13th place and also qualified for state with a round of 112.  Sarah Haak finished with a 126, just five strokes off from qualifying for state.  Natasha Reit finished with a round of 134, and Courtney Sorsen ended with a 144.

Head coach Jeff Dvorak said, “First off, let’s start with something really positive.  Congrats to April and Aleza who qualified for the state golf tournament in Milbank next week.  Great job, girls.  Those two girls have been very steady all season and deserve to play at State.  I am a bit disappointed in not getting our whole team in.  If each kid would’ve just shot two strokes better, which they were very capable of doing, we would all be going.  So right now, I think the girls are hanging their heads a bit.  The wind really seemed to take a toll on us today, and not having much or any experience with Region golf, nerves and tough weather contributed to our demise.  Although I am disappointed in not getting the team in, I am proud of our progress this year.  In the short season we had, the girls came a long way in understanding the game.  Hopefully, we can put some time in this summer and earn our way to State next year.”

Quarrier Girls Golfers Prepare for Regions

May 13, 2013 By

The Dell Rapids Quarrier girls golf team participated in the Sioux Falls Christian Invite on Friday, May 3rd.  The Quarriers finished with a team score of 494.  Parkston won the event with a team score of 326.  Aleza Kirschenmann had the best round for the Quarriers with a 111 to finish in 15th place.  April Tomes finished with a 115, Natasha Reit shot a 124, Courtney Sorsen and Brittnay Welbig each finished with a round of 144, and Sarah Haak shot a 145.  Head coach Jeff Dvorak said, “I thought Aleza had a decent round considering the weather conditions. Today we were not mentally strong, and it seemed that when one or two things didn’t go our way, we threw in the towel.  We need to be tougher mentally and put away our bad shots.  I’m still proud of the fact that the girls had pretty good attitudes despite the cold and wind.”

On Monday, May 6th, the Quarriers played in the Big Sioux Conference Meet held at Two Rivers Golf Course.  Dell Rapids finished with a team score of 426 for 5th place out of eight teams.  Sioux Falls Christian finished first as a team with a score 328.  Kirschenmann again had the best individual round for the Quarriers with a 99, finishing just two spots from a medal.  Tomes finished with a 102, Reit shot a 109, Haak had a round of 116, Sorsen shot a 132, Mariah Warne finished with a 118, Welbig shot a 121, and Taylor Brown finished the day with a 144.  Dvorak said, “We had two or three girls shoot their best scores, and our team score was the lowest of the year.  It feels like we are definitely going in the right direction.  Hopefully, the weather holds, and we’re able to practice this week so that we are at our best for Regions next Monday.  These girls are really sponges and very coachable; they want to work on their game and get better.”

In the final tune-up before Regions, the Quarriers played in the Harrisburg Invite on Thursday, May 9th.  Dell Rapids finished 9th out of 13 teams with a team score of 439.  Parkston won the event with a team score of 305.  Tomes had the best round for the Quarriers with a 102.  Kirschenmann shot a 104, Haak finished with a 113, Reit shot a 120, and Sorsen and Warne each had a round of 128.  Dvorak said, “Once again, I was proud of our showing today.  Each tournament finds someone new posting a personal best and today was no different.  I feel that Monday’s Region tournament up in Sisseton is a place where we could have everyone show up, and we could put up our best team score of the year.  Today’s conditions were miserable and I thought all the girls handled themselves well.”

The Quarriers will play in the Region meet on Monday, May 13th, in Sisseton.
