FINAL:
Texas 2, Media 1

One down, two to go.
Media starts their Mid-Atlantic regional tournament on the right note as they took down Montgomery County (MD) 6-2.
Trevor Skowronek’s two-run single got the scoring started in the third, and Nolan Gratton’s RBI double in the fourth put the icing on the cake…
I know I don’t stand alone on this take, but every high school baseball conference should have a title game.
The Central League, Del Val, and Inter-Ac all give the team with the best record the title even if that means a tie.
