Inclement weather caused delays throughout the three-day tournament. The Indians first game against El Reno took two days to complete as rain caused a postponement on Thursday. The Indians trailed  1-0 after the first day, but scored three runs on Friday to rally for the win.

Kooper Doucet drove in all three runs for the Indians as he had an RBI groundout in the fourth inning and a two-run go-ahead double in the bottom of the sixth.

It was a game of pitching and defense as both teams could muster just three hits each in the game. Clayton Brantner and Ian Essex had the other hits for Comanche.

Gabe Diaz pitched the second day and picked up the win on the mound.  Gunner King picked up the save.
