FRYEBURG — Things couldn’t have turned out any better for the Fryeburg Academy baseball team on Tuesday. Not only did the No. 10 ranked Raiders go on the road and score a 2-0 upset victory over No. 7 Poland in the opening round of the Class B Tournament, but the news got even better a few hours later.

Coach Greg Allain and his troops learned they’ll be home for a quarterfinal game. Rival Lake Region, the No. 15 seed, went to No. 2 Erskine Academy (15-4) and pulled off a 1-0 win to advance in the tourney. That upset means the Raiders will host the Lakers in the Elite Eight on Thursday at 4 p.m., weather permitting.
