Ridgefield's Casey Lehnertz Goes 3-for-3 With Two Homers, Sends Spudders to State

If you don't know the name Casey Lehnertz yet, you will. The Ridgefield standout went 3 for 3 with a double, two home runs, and five RBI to power the Spudders past Tumwater 15-11 in the 2A district tournament in Chehalis.

Instead, coach Aaron Coiteux delivered the same steady message he's been giving his players for three seasons — and the Thunder responded with a comeback to capture the 3A district baseball championship. It's a statement win for a program that has been building toward this kind of moment. Saturday brings even more local postseason action, with Battle Ground and Seton Catholic both in pivotal games.

Camas, Battle Ground, Seton Catholic All in Action Saturday

It's one of the busiest postseason weekends Clark County has seen this spring. Check the full scoreboard at The Columbian.
