The Dawgs offense did not skip a beat, putting up 6 runs in the 1st inning and they never looked back, as they easily beat the Braves by a final score of 14-2 to secure their 3rd straight provincial championship. Offensively, the Dawgs were led by Ethan Renaud going 3-for-4 with a double and 2 RBI with 3 runs scored, and Eddie Griffin going 2-for-5 including a 3 run home run that would enforce the 10 run-rule to secure the championship.
