CASSELTON — The latest chapter of the Devils Lake-Kindred rivalry was written on a cloudy Sunday afternoon at Valley Process Technologies Field.

As they were in the region championship, the Devils Lake Storm (30-10) were victorious. But Kindred Post 117 (29-11), originally the No. 7 seed in the East, put up a scrappy fight in Sunday’s elimination game.

Devils Lake, a day after letting a 3-0 lead get away in the seventh inning, overcame three errors and an early 2-0 deficit to take down the Vikings 7-5. All of the Storm’s runs came in the first two innings.

“We were very mad about last night,” Devils Lake catcher Trason Beck said. “The only good thing was we could come back tomorrow and win the next baseball game.”
