In Game One, the Eagles battled sleet, hail, snow, wind and a very good Saline team in 3 inning game that was called. Lakeland was down 9-8 when the game was called. Natalie Hagle had 3 hits, including two home runs, and drove in 4 to power the Eagles. Paige Ambler and Kellie Mueller pitched giving up 8 hits and 5 earned runs.

In Game Two, the Eagles ran into state-ranked Macomb Dakota. The weather wasn't the only issue for the Eagles against Dakota. The Eagles only managed to push one run across on an error by the Dakota third baseman pushing across Parker Ostach. Final Score Macomb Dakota 12 Lakeland 1.

In Game three, the Eagles took on Grand Haven from the East side of the State. It was a tight game through three innings but Grand Haven broke through with three in the fourth on to a 5-1 Victory. Tierney Finnegan drove in Lakeland's sole run. Ambler and Mueller combined to give up 8 hits and struck out 3.

Sunday morning brought more of the same weather-wise. The temperature was in the low 30's with wind chills in the 20's. The Eagles came ready to play taking on rival Howell in Game One. The Eagles jumped out to an early lead, scoring one in the first, one in the second, and 4 in the third. They never looked back winning 6-0. The Eagles were led at the plate by Hagle and Ostach who each had home runs. Ostach had 3 RBIs. Mueller went the distance for the shutout, giving up 4 hits and striking out 7.

The final game of the weekend was against Tecumseh. It was a back-and-forth affair. Tecumseh jumped out to a 4-0 lead in the second but the Eagles came back to tie it up in the third. The big hit in the inning was a home run by Ostach. Each team put up three in the fourth inning. Tecumseh was able to pull out the victory with three in the final frame.
