3. Bishop Gorman HS - Nevada – 41-3 (3)
There's something about Bishop Gorman's baseball team and late-inning rallies in the state tournament. The Gaels scored five runs in the bottom of the sixth Saturday at UNR's Peccole Park to break a 3-all tie and beat Green Valley 8-3 to capture their third consecutive Class 4A state title. Stephen Manthei started the sixth-inning rally by lining a single to left field, and Corey Laffler then singled through the right side to chase Green Valley starter Joe Robinson, who had turned in a solid performance despite having thrown 72 pitches Thursday. After Joey Rickard popped out, Johnny Field lined a single to right to score pinch runner Matt Hall to break the tie. The Gaels added an RBI triple by Jeff Malm, an RBI double by Paul Sewald and an RBI single by John Rickard. Another run scored on an error. Congrats on a three-peat Bishop Gorman.

8. Alvin HS - Texas – 31-4 (8)
Houston 5A Baseball web site reports…The Alvin Yellow-Jackets found themselves in a Region Quarter-Final series against a very familiar foe in the Brazoswood Buccaneers. Both teams reside in district 24-5A and had already met twice in the regular season with Alvin claiming both games in late inning rallies. But that is ancient history and this is the play-offs where the records are 0-0 at the start. In game 1, the Bucs powered past Alvin with home runs by the Buc's Joey Bacica, and Andrew Garner. Anthony McIntyre picked up the win for the Bucs while Tyler Green picked up the two inning save. In game 2, The Yellow-Jackets picked up the 3-2 victory with a walk-off home run by Michael Guerra. Game three was another one run affair but Alvin lead 4-1 most of the way and Josh Land squashed a seventh inning rally where the Bucs were only able to pull within one dropping the contest 4-3, and the series 2 games to 1. Alvin will now face the Bellaire Cardinals in the Region Semi-Final.

STATE CHAMPS! Dunedin's run to the Class 5A state title, the first baseball championship at the school in 44 years, was filled with exhilarating moments. In the seventh inning of the state championship game, nearly every Falcon fan had their fingers clenched at the edge of their seat.

Jake Rogers came in to get the final two outs. The Falcons scored the winning run when Max Kreuter singled in Max Priest in the top of the 10th inning.
