Door County has another opportunity to add a state champion to its 2020-2021 resume before the fall high school sports season begins.
The Ahnapee Trailblazers begin the American Legion Class AA State Championships Friday afternoon against Medford at 4 p.m. The Trailblazers showed the fight they had in the regional tournament, losing their first game to Ashwaubenon before rallying to win four straight. They were down 8-1 in the regional final before rebounding to win 10-8 over Pulaski. Medford's run was not easy. They cruised into Sunday winning all of their games before Rhinelander topped them 10-1. Medford won the rematch later that day 11-6.
Waupaca or Onalaska will be the Trailblazers next opponent, though a loss would force them to play at 10 a.m. Saturday while a win would delay their next contest until 4 p.m.
