The Tomah American Legion Seniors baseball team lost two games Saturday at the Viroqua Tournament.

Tomah was defeated by Viroqua, 11-3, and dropped an 11-1 decision to Westby.

The Seniors emerged from the tournament with a 1-3 record.

Kevin Barth accounted for most of the Tomah offense Saturday. He was 3-for-4 with a double in the Viroqua contest. He also pitched the last two innings against Viroqua.

A lack of players caused Tomah to forfeit its Sunday games at Viroqua against Lomira and Onalaska.

Tomah also had to cancel a home Juniors/Seniors doubleheader Tuesday against Mauston when only seven players were available. Tomah also cancelled a Juniors game Wednesday at Wisconsin Dells.

Tomah Legion coach Matt Dutton anticipates having full squads again this weekend. The Juniors play a 2 p.m. doubleheader at Viroqua Saturday, while the Seniors host a doubleheader against LaFarge Sunday beginning at 1 p.m. at Dennis Senz Field.

" WHy try to have a senior and junior team when not enouph for one total. Bite the bullet and drop one team. Some players dont want to play 50 games in a summer. That is both teams schedual. It usually is an extention of the Schools baseball program and are seniors that are graduating encouraged to play or is the team used just for developing younger players for next year. The city team folded now this team is struggling and the braves and arrows numbers are down from 10 years ago. Sounds like BB in Tomah is about dead. "
