Rain stops Mudhens game

The second round of the Section 9C Playoffs in Madison was rained out on Sunday.

Instead, the Minneota Mudhens will play the Morris Eagles at 7:30 p.m. Friday, August 2 in Dawson.

Dumont will play Chokio at 7:30 p.m. Friday in Madison in the other semifinal game.

Then the two winners will turn around and play at 11 a.m. Saturday in Rosen. The winner of that game will be in the state tournament and will wait to play the other state qualifier — which must come though the losers' bracket.

Meanwhile, the losers' bracket begins on Satudray, August 3 after the two undefeated teams play. Cottonwood will play Clinton at 1:30 p.m. and Dawson will play Hancock at 4 p.m. All the games are in Rosen.

On Sunday, August 4, the losers bracket continues at 1 p.m. and 3 p.m.

The final weekend of the Section 9C Tournament is on Saturday and Sunday, August 10 and 11 in Rosen.

Last weekend, the first-round scores were:

Morris Eagles 1, Hancock Orphans 0, 15 innings

Minneota Mudhens 4, Dawson Drakes 1

Dumont Saints 4, Clinton Cards 3

Chokio Coyotes 12, Cottonwood Cardinals 6
