Class C baseball in Kensington, Minnesota

The Kensington Norsemen are an amateur baseball club from Kensington, Minnesota, playing Class C in the Resorters League under the Minnesota Baseball Association. They went 0-8 in 2026 under manager Eric Paulzine at Hegg Field.

Kensington is a Douglas County village of about three hundred people, and in 1898 a farmer just outside it turned up a slab of greywacke carved with runes claiming a party of Norsemen had passed through in 1362. The Kensington Runestone has been argued about ever since. The village named its baseball team the Norsemen and let the argument continue elsewhere.

Four classification points is near the floor of Class C, and eight games is the shortest season in this set after Fosston's eleven.

Zero wins is the second winless record here, after Heron Lake went 0-16. A village of three hundred fielding a side eight times without winning one is still a village of three hundred fielding a side eight times.

The village that produced the runestone, fielding a side eight times without winning one. High Cheese gives Kensington the page where turning up eight times is the record.
