The Lakers lost in a regional championship to Portland St. Patrick, 9-1, Saturday at Central Michigan University.
Glen Lake scored first on a double by Tanner Crick, who stole third and scored on a Colton Newman squeeze bunt.
“I’m a little disappointed that the score doesn’t reflect how well we played them up until the sixth inning. They are one of the best teams in the state in any division, and we fought a good fight. In the end, we lost to a much better team and made them work to do it. There’s no shame in that,” Glen Lake coach Kris Herman said. “These guys made tremendous strides during the season, and came a long way from where they were a month ago. They definitely should be proud of the season that they had. They took it farther than anyone expected. It was a great season driven by 3 of the best senior leaders that I’ve ever had.”
