SLEEPY EYE Heading into the 2018 high school baseball season, the Sleepy Eye Indians had high expectations for a team that was senior-heavy.
The Indians won the Tomahawk Conference title that year after they went 18-6 overall and 6-1 in the conference. But the conference title didn’t seem to mean much when section seedings came out and the Indians had to prove themselves yet again.
The Indians, who drew the No. 7 seed for the Section 2A playoffs, had to win a couple of road games in the playoffs before eventually winning the section title, the school’s first since the 2000 season. And they kept that momentum going, finishing second at the Class A state tournament.
