The second-seeded Hawks (14-4) opened with six runs in the bottom of the first inning, fueled by a two-run double from Bryce Stacy, as they dispatch the third-seeded Roadrunners (12-6) in five innings in a Class C South semifinal at Hiram.

James Ritter earned the win, allowing one run on two hits while fanning nine in 4 2/3 innings. He also drove in three runs.
