Baseball: Hall seeks second sectional championship at Knoxville

Hall sophomore Max Bryant pitches during Monday's game at Prather Field. He shut out host Princeton 2-0 on two hits while striking out 10.

The Hall Red Devils are in the hunt for the Class 2A sectional championship at Knoxville.

The Red Devils (22-8) will send junior ace Max Bryant to the mound against Sherrard (25-6) today, seeking their second sectional championship in school history.

Game time is 11 a.m.

The Red Devils used a “pickle play” to score their only run and rode the shutout pitching of junior Peyton Dye to a 1-0 win over the Lewistown Valley Cuba co-op on Thursday.

Sherrard beat Macomb 5-3 in Wednesday’s semifinals and rallied to beat host Princeton 3-2 for the regional championship.

Hall won its only sectional in 2018, rocking Alleman 12-1, on its way to the Class 2A state championship.
