The **** umption would have been that a No. 2 seed beats a No. 7 seed, but when it comes down to the Iowa high school state baseball tournament, it's advised not to **** ume.
With the mindset of "why not us," Davenport **** umption made it nine straight wins on Tuesday, July 21, with an 11-1 win in six innings over Carlisle (26-9). **** umption's 20th state tournament appearance now features a state semifinal berth with a chance to return to the state final for the first time since 2022.
With a 27-13 record and the No. 7 seed, **** umption has recently had a new mentality leading up to the state tournament.
"I don't think the seed has anything to do with it," said **** umption head coach Greg Thissen. "I think getting to the state tournament, everybody that makes it feels like they have a chance to win. I feel like it's been us against the like two or three weeks ago. It all came together, had a couple big wins, had a couple discussions."
