HELENA — It was only fitting that on Canada Day a Canadian team walked away as champions at the Keith Sell Tournament in Helena. The Lethbridge Elks rallied late in the game to beat the Great Falls Chargers, 8-4, Sunday afternoon at Kindrick Legion Field.

Trailing 3-1 entering the bottom of the fourth, Lethbridge hung up three runs in each the fourth and fifth innings to grab a commanding 7-4 lead. Dalton Demers went 3-4 with two runs scored and two RBIs to lead the Elks, while Kyle Bloor added three hits on the afternoon. Five Lethbridge batters knocked in runs for the Elks.

Alan Laraque was the only Great Falls hitter with multiple hits.
