The Kentucky American Legion West Semi-State Tournament will come down to one game on Friday.

Defending state champion Owensboro Post 9 forced the winner-take-all championship by dealing Lyon County Post 68 a 10-8 setback in eight innings Thursday night at Hopkins County Central High School in Mortons Gap.

The two squads will meet again at 5:00 Friday in the double-elimination event.

The winner will advance to the State Finals in Bowling Green next week against the East Semi-State champion.

Lyon County scored once in the bottom of the seventh inning Thursday night to knot the game at 8-8 and send it to extra innings.

Earlier on Thursday, Owensboro defeated Mayfield Post 26 in an elimination game, 11-0 in five innings, to reach the championship round.
