DE PERE — The Kaukauna American Legion AAA baseball team is heading to the 2023 state tournament.
The Angels defeated De Pere 9-4 Saturday at Westwood Park in De Pere to advance.
De Pere needed to defeat Kaukauna twice in the double-elimination tournament to make it to state. A victory last night over Kaukauna set up today’s winner-take-all final.
A two-run homer by Jake Lucas and tough pitching by Noah Meyer was enough to put Kaukauna on top.
The state tournament runs July 25-29, 2023 in Marinette.
