For the 20th time in the last 23 seasons, the Cheyenne Sixers are the Wyoming American Legion Baseball AA State Champs.

The Sixers got a solo home run from Mason Tafoya to lead off the game and never trailed. That was part of a seven-run first inning. Cheyenne used a bases-loaded walk, a two-run single from Nolan Horton, an RBI single from Kaed Coates, and an RBI single by Tafoya to break the game open.

Kaeden Wilcox hit a solo home run in the bottom of the first, which helped the Oilers get on the scoreboard. They trailed 7-1.
