Airport vs South Florence District Championship Game
May 11, 2022
Game 1 - South Florence offense comes out firing in the first few innings and never looks back. Found contributions from the entire lineup, including a pair of 3-run plays courtesy of ‘23 Luke Miller with a double in the 2nd and ‘22 Jake Hardee with a homer in the 4th. ‘23 LHP Aydin Palmer had it working on the bump, the only blemish being a 2-run homer in the middle innings. Bruins cruise to a 9-5 victory.
Game 2 - A pitcher’s duel through and through, performances from Airport’s ‘22 RHP Blake Morrison and S. Florence’s ‘23 RHP Luke Miller kept offenses at bay for the entire course of the game. Both arms had a two-pitch FB/BB combo working throughout the game, few barrels and baserunners. Airport capitalized off a 1st inning 2-run shot from ‘22 Blake Palyok and manufactured another later in game, which proved to be all they needed to advance to the Lower State Championship Bracket.
