No. 1 Seed - East Rowan
East Rowan has been a run producer all year living off of the long ball to score runs quickly, solid arms on the mound keep games in check and can throw shutdown innings when needed. The match up with South Central will be interesting to see, can East Rowans bats stay hot against South's arms?
