Pierre Post 8 will be on the road this weekend for a trip to Rapid City to play in the Veteran’s Classic being in the Post 22 Hardhats pool. Pierre will have four pool play games with a fifth game on Sunday in the placing game.
Pierre opens up the tournament with an early doubleheader playing the first two games of the tournament. Pierre will face the Westco Zephyr’s out of Scottsbluff, Nebraska to open the day before then face Laramie, Wyoming in game two. The Eights then will have off until Friday night, when they face the host Post 22 Hardhats at 8:00 Central Time, the marquee time and matchup of the weekend. Pierre closes pool play Saturday afternoon with Miles City. The Sunday game will be up to how everybody places at the end of Saturday.
The main game of the weekend for Pierre is against Post 22. The Eights want to make sure they compete well and look for a win for the South Dakota standings. All other games matter, but the most important game of the weekend to try and win will be against the Hardhats. It’s the only time Pierre will see Post 22 this year.
Coverage of the two games today begins at 9:45 this morning with first pitch at 10:00 AM Central Time. All games this weekend will be on KCCR and on YouTube at KCCR Sports with Jon Winkler on the call. You can see a full schedule of the weekend for the Eights’ pool below.
