Perham has gone a perfect 10-0 against Hawley recently and they'll look to pad the win column further on Tuesday. The Yellowjackets will take on the Nuggets at 4:00 p.m. Keep an eye on the score for this one: the two teams posted some lofty run totals in their previous games.
Perham had to skate by with only a two-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the 11-run drubbing they dealt Minnehaha Academy on Saturday. The Yellowjackets were the clear victors by a 12-1 margin over the Red Hawks. The Yellowjackets not only won on Saturday, but they posted their biggest win since May 2, 2024.
Joey Ecker looked comfortable as he pitched two innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit. What's more, he posted two strikeouts, the most he's had since back in May of 2024.

At the plate, Perham got a massive performance out of Ty Rooney, who went a perfect 4-for-4 with four RBI, one triple, and one run. Those four RBI gave Rooney a new career-high. The team also got some help courtesy of Gavin Griffin, who scored three runs and stole a base while going 2-for-4.
Meanwhile, Hawley took care of business in their home opener (and then some) on Thursday. They blew past Breckenridge 15-2. Winning may never get old, but the Nuggets sure are getting used to it with their fourth in a row dating back to last season.
Everything went Perham's way against Hawley when the teams last played back in April of 2024, as Perham made off with a 14-0 victory. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Yellowjackets since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
