Duffy (six strikeouts, four walks) scattered five hits and allowed just two earned runs, while Jackson’s Tom Hady (three strikeouts, two walks) was also effective in a complete-game effort on the mound.

Marcus Schultz and Blaise Jacobsen each belted an RBI triple to help the Bulls jump out to a 3-0 lead after three innings. Andy Wolf, Ryan Rasche and Caleb Rossow all collected singles for Jackson’s other base hits.

Heron Lake scored three runs in the fourth to tie the game and then took a 4-3 lead in the sixth when Knutson drove in Eric Milbrath with a two-out single to left field. Ben Scheevel (RBI double), Kirk McBreen, Ethan Duffy (double) and Lon Eichenberger also had base hits for the Lakers.
