The Libby Loggers Legion baseball team came out of the Big Bucks Tournament with three wins in four games and optimism for the rest of the season.
“Our goal coming into the tournament was to use it as a jumping off point for the second half, we won a few games and learned we can play well and compete,” Loggers manager Kelly Morford said. “We know baseball is the most fun when you’re in close games and now we just have to be ready to compete every time we go out.”
The Loggers, which had two wins entering Big Bucks, opened strong Thursday with a 13-3 win in five innings over the Moscow Blue Devils.
