On Thursday, Platte defeated Winner/Colome 4-0.
Riley Calhoon pitched five innings giving up 2 runs, 5 hits, 2 walks and had 7 strikeouts.
Lantz had 2 hits.
“Thursday was a tough game for us because we couldn’t get across some runs,” said coach Drew Weber.
It was a one run game going into the bottom of the 6th inning and the Royals had four to five chances to put some runs on the board but just could not get the big hit.
“We hit the ball hard all game but they weren’t falling. Riley threw a good game and really deserved to get the win,” said Weber.
The coach said Sunday was a great two wins although the team had to battle 30 mile an hour winds. “We brought the bats back from the dead and really hit well in both games,” said Weber. “We had been in a 3-4 game slump at the plate and we finally broke out which allowed us to relax a little bit and play our game. Brickman and O’Bryan threw two games and I think we were error free in both games, which was impressive given the weather conditions.”
The coach added: “We still have a ways to go to get to where we want to be.” Winner/Colome’s record is 6-1. “Considering our youth and inexperience that is something we can be proud of.”
The Royals will host South Central on Monday, April 27. The junior varsity game will start at 5:30 p.m. at Leahy Bowl followed by the varsity contest.

Evelyn Hockett, age 81, of Winner, passed away at her home on Wednesday, April 15, 2015.
Funeral service was held on Saturday April 18, at 2 p.m. at the United Methodist Church in Winner. Burial followed in the Winner City Cemetery.
Evelyn Mae Carpenter was born at home to parents Ernest and Hazel (Sylvester) Carpenter, on October 26, 1933, in Rosewell, SD.
Evie attended grade school at Burbank Consolidated Schools. Her early high school years were spent at Canova High School. It was during her high school years that she met and married the love of her life, Robert Cecil (Bud) Hockett, Sr. To this union ten children were born.
Bud and Evie shared thirty one years together. It was during the time she tenderly cared for Bud in their home when he was suffering with cancer, that he encouraged her to pursue her new found interest in nursing care. At the age of fifty, Evie chose a future career as a nurse. Following the death of her husband, she would enter the Pierre School of Nursing in 1983, graduating suma cum laude. Evie retired from the nursing profession in 2011, caring for many and touching lives with compassion, concern and great sense of humor all grounded in her rock solid faith.
Evie loved life and having a good time and was such fun to spend time with. Her incredible sense of humor and frequent tendency to devise ways to tease and prank people, could keep others on their toes and not quite sure what she might be up to next! She loved to laugh, whether at herself or the situation, and sometimes she created that laughable situation! Many a time there was quite the mischievous sparkle in those pretty blue eyes of her’s and you didn’t know what was about to take place.
Evie was a grandma to more than her own “grands” and ”greats” as she often referred to the huge bunch of next generations she never lost count of, or grew tired of bragging on. She often said it was an honor to be called “Grandma” by all her grandchildren as well as their friends. This loving Grandma understood the concept of Jesus’ open arms to the children. She gladly welcomed hosts of adopted grandchildren over the years. And you didn’t need to be related to call her “Grandma”, she invited it and she was very good in that role. How blessed they all are that this grandma’s prayers for each of them will be remembered by God for years to come.
Evelyn was a fantastic cook and the most amazing baker. Her breads and cinnamon rolls were treats that were known worldwide over the years. Memories of walking into her home and taking in the delicious aroma of something wonderful about to come out of the oven are precious. She would always welcome her guests with a big smile, invite them to sit at her table, then she would put coffee on and tempt you with quite the assortment of gooey and frosted delights. Or how about those chocolate chip cookies? One bite from Evie’s bakery shop and you were hooked!
Evie loved to go camping. She was always up for the adventure of roughing it, planning tasty picnic menus, sitting by campfires, and going on hikes. She just loved the outdoors and visiting new places. She also enjoyed going to retreats and church camps. For several years she was known as the camp cook. She could whip up quite the banquet for just a few or a few hundred people, and of course it always tasted so good to those hungry campers! Evie’s spent many years attending youth and teen camps as cook and camp nurse, roles she truly enjoyed.
Vegetation is extraordinarily dry this spring season and fire danger is very high in the Black Hills and surrounding areas.
Fire restrictions are in place on state, federal and county lands within the Black Hills Forest Fire Protection District.
South Dakota Wildland Fire division director, Jay Esperance, is asking everyone to be cautious during this current dry spell to help prevent wildfires.
“It’s essential local area residents and visitors comply with the fire restrictions,” Esperance said. “One carelessly tossed cigarette could have tragic consequences for our state’s communities.”
State officials would like to remind area residents the increased potential for wildfires necessitates fire prevention precautions for all.
Ways to aid in prevention efforts include never driving or parking a vehicle in dry grass, making sure cigarette butts are properly extinguished and ensuring your outdoor equipment is maintained and equipped with proper spark arrestors.
“We are in a time of year where vegetation has yet to green-up, further increasing the fire risk,” says the Halley Legge, fire prevention technician. “Please be vigilant and abide by current fire restrictions for your area.”
Current restrictions can be found at www.blackhillsfirerestrictions.com for the Black Hills area. For statewide fire danger, visit https://gacc.nifc.gov/rmcc/dispatch_centers/r2gpc/fuels.htm.
