The state high school baseball tournament continued in Marshalltown and Carroll on Thursday. In the 4A opening round in Marshalltown, Defending champion West Des Moines Valley scored three runs in the first enroute to a 6-2 win over third ranked Sioux City North. The victory kept the Tigers’ hopes alive of sending retiring coach Steve Mohr out with a title. Mohr says the quick start was the difference and Mohr feels their pitching depth gives them an advantage as the tournament progresses.
