Shawn Craig began a third-inning rally with a double, which was followed by a single from Joshua Mulcahey, a double from Nick Simonsen, and singles from Royce Cone and Kobe Howard. The burst of offense was responsible for all four of the team’s runs. The game was called in the fourth inning because of the mercy rule.
Central Vancouver won the District 4 championship by beating a team that had beaten them earlier in the tournament. So Dawson Allen, Saturday’s starting pitcher, feels his squad is still alive.
“They beat us by a bunch the first time,” Dawson said. “And then we came back to win.”
District 6 champion Salmon Creek plays its first game Sunday at 5 p.m.
The tournament runs through July 30.
