Totino-Grace slips past No. 1 seed Maple Grove

CLASS 3A, SECTION 5

• TOTINO-GRACE 4, MAPLE GROVE 3: Totino-Grace jumped on No. 1-seeded Maple Grove early, thanks to a two-run home run by Derek Lodermeier in the top of the first inning. Maple Grove rallied to tie the score 3-3, but Totino-Grace took the lead for good in the fourth inning when Matt Leuty was hit by a pitch, advanced to third on a throwing error and scored on Sam Meyer's sacrifice fly.

• COOPER 3, COON RAPIDS 2: Grant Kirkbride drove in the tying and winning runs with a single in the seventh inning.

CLASS 3A, SECTION 6

• WAYZATA 4, BENILDE-ST. MARGARET'S 3: Wayzata parlayed one great inning in a victory over the Red Knights in the first round of double-elimination play. The Trojans bunched five singles in six at-bats in the top of the sixth, scoring all four runs. Wayzata pitcher Ryan Poppitz scattered seven hits, allowed two earned runs and struck out seven to earn the victory.

• RICHFIELD 6, BENILDE-ST. MARGARET'S 0: Andy Peterson pitched a three-hit shutout and Raheim Hampton went 2-for-4 with a home run as Richfield knocked No. 1-seeded Benilde-St. Margaret's out of postseason play with a losers' bracket victory.
