Nelson - Coach. Baseball In the opening game against Randolph the team went down to defeat 15 to 1 due to 14 errors. After this game, the team showed steady improvement and played some very good baseball. Succeeding games found them beating Mazeppa 19 to 3 and Eyota 7 to 3. This was followed by a heartbreaking 4 to 3 loss in 12 innings to conference champion, Goodhue. In the district play-offs, Wabasha defeated Mazeppa and then lost a well-played game to a very strong Winona team, 2 to 0. The highlight of the season was Terry O'Brien's rapidly improving pitching, which, at one stretch, saw him pitch 12 consecutive innings without allowing a hit.
