The South Tahoe Vikings varsity baseball team is headed to the Nevada State Division 1-A Tournament May 22-24 after taking 2nd place in the Northern Championships Saturday.
Friday's Northern Nevada Tournament action saw South Tahoe beat Number 1 seed Elko in the morning game, followed by Fallon beating Spring Creek in the afternoon and South Tahoe losing to the Fallon team in the nightcap.
South Tahoe had the morning game again on Saturday, in which they beat Spring Creek by a score of 10-8.
Elko lost both of their Friday games, sending the favorites home early, while the Fallon Greenwave won both of the games on their schedule.
Saturday afternoon's Championship Game put Fallon up against South Tahoe. The Greenwave scored 1 run in the first inning, 5 in the second, 4 in the fourth, 1 in the fifth and 2 in the sixth inning. The Vikings scored 1 run in each the third, fifth and sixth innings. The final was 13-3.
