Yankton Baseball wrapped up their season over the weekend with multiple major milestones at the Class A State Tournament.
Before their first game, Samuel Gokie made history, as he became the first athlete to win Class A Player of the Year in back-to-back seasons.
Nearly two hours after being honored, Gokie would walk off the Bucks’ 2-1 Quarterfinal victory over Rapid City Stevens with a Sac Fly.
The win advanced the Bucks to their first State Semifinal appearance in over a decade. Despite a few late runs, Yankton’s season would come to an end in the semifinals with a 6-2 loss to Watertown.
Yankton ended the High School Baseball season with a 21-5 overall record. Yankton now shifts to the legion season, with Post 12 opening play on Sunday, on the road against Huron.
