No. 3 Mahtomedi 5, Grand Rapids 3: Mahtomedi (22-4) built a three-run lead after the first inning and sustained the advantage throughout en route to a victory over the Thunderhawks (17-9) in the semifinals at Chaska Athletic Park. Junior center fielder Ethan Felling, senior first baseman Jack Erickson and senior pitcher Max Strecker all had early RBIs to help send the Zephyrs to the Class AAA championship game for the fourth time since 2016. In that span, Mahtomedi was the runner-up in 2016 and champions in 2018 and 2019, respectively. Grand Rapids loaded the bases in the top of the seventh inning with one out and trailing 5-2, but were able to push just one across with a sacrifice fly.

Junior pitcher Jake Rantz gave up just three hits to the Red Knights (21-4) and relied on a defense that recorded 15 flyout outs and four groundball outs.
