  first regional title since upsetting Princeton in two A in
• 1:25
  two thousand and nine, their only postseason championship. After a

  winning five of its last six, including a fifteen to
• 1:35

  The Tigers stole thirty one bases in a two game

  including a eleven game win streak. While they read, Devils
• 3:01
  will open against a Monroe's team they beat thirteen to
• 3:04
  three on May first, coach Tom Keegan said, you can
• 3:07
  throw that one out of the books. Anybody can beat anybody.
• 3:10
  Sounds like coach speak, sounds like cliches, but that's a fact.
• 3:14
  We'll see Monroes. They've been hot as of late. Saw
• 3:18
  them a few weeks ago at our place, it'll be
• 3:20
  a different game, I'm sure. The favored Pioneers finished sixth
• 3:24
  in the Western Big Six. They seek their first regional
• 3:27
  crown since twenty nineteen. Hall and Alman have postseason history.
• 3:32
  The Red Devils beat the Pioneer's twelve to one win

  in the sectionals finals in twenty eighteen on the way
• 3:37
  to the two A state title. Alman returned the favor
• 3:41
  by defeating Hall eight seven in the sectional finals in

  twenty nineteen, advancing to the state finals. Hall has won
• 3:47
  five regionals since twenty seventeen. Princeton's only postseason success came

• 4:34
  Championship winners two three eleven AM Noteworthy, the Bruins were
• 4:39
  bumped to two A after faulting in a one A
• 4:41
  regional final last year. They were shipped one hundred and
• 4:44
  six miles to Aledo for postseason play bypassing the Princeton
• 4:48
  Regional to meet the Gray Ghosts, who will travel ninety
• 4:51
  seven miles. The Bruins have won nine of their last
• 4:55
  fifteen heading into the postseason, including a split with two
• 4:59
  time defending two two champion Ottawa Marquette. We will hit
• 5:03
  the road to play a very good IVC team. Their
• 5:06
  record hovers a round point five zero zero, but their
• 5:08
  schedule is loaded and play mostly three teams during the season.
• 5:12
  They're very athletic and can pitch it. Saint Bede coach
• 5:15
  Bill Booker said, Rockridge is the number one seed and
• 5:18
  this sure seems to be their year with twenty five
• 5:20
  plus wins, with multiple formidable arms and an overall really
• 5:24
  good disciplined team. Sat bed will face an IVC team
• 5:29
  which finished fourth in the Illinis Prairie Conference and lost
• 5:32
  to Haul eight seven and beat Princeton nineteen to five.
• 5:36
  Rockridge had a twelve zero run to claim the Three
• 5:38
  Rivers West Championship and has won thirteen of fifteen games
• 5:42
  heading into the postseason. Last year's regional finals Midland four,
• 5:46
  Saint Beide two shared five, Rockridge four. Next winner advances
