On Thursday, Memorial sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 7-6 victory over Elida.
Meanwhile, Celina was able to grind out a solid win over St. Henry on Monday, taking the game 8-3.
Celina's victory was their third straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 9-3. Those road wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 13.0 runs over those games. As for Memorial, their victory bumped their record up to 9-3.
Memorial came out on top in a nail-biter against Celina in their previous meeting back in April of 2024, sneaking past 2-1.
