The Whitefish and Columbia Falls High School Baseball teams will play host to the Sapa-Johnsrud Invite, at Glacier Bank Park (Home of the Range Riders), May 10th and 11th.
The Sapa-Johnsrud Invite is a historic tournament that is played every year in memory of Ray Johnsrud and Jim Sapa.
The Glacier Twins started the event following the tragic 1984 car-train accident in Columbia Falls. To honor their memory and their love for baseball, the Twins held the first Sapa-Johnsrud Memorial Tournament the following year.
Now, High School Baseball is in it's 2nd full season as an MHSA Sanctioned sport and the two communities, Whitefish and Columbia Falls, will host the Sapa-Johnsrud as a High School Baseball Invitational.
12 teams will compete in the inaugural Sapa-Johnsrud High School Baseball Invitational. All games will be played at Glacier Bank Park, Home of the Range Riders.
