COLUMBUS, Ohio � A game dominated by good pitching, defense and sound

for the Tigers, despite eight hits during the game.
Newark Catholic took advantage of the eight hits it collected scoring twice.
Junior Hunter Nance drove in the Green Wave�s first run in the third inning
with an RBI single and in the fourth inning senior David Meurer doubled to
right centerfield scoring junior Conor Keck and what was the ultimate
winning run.

history and the third time in five years (2013, 2011, and 2009). The Tigers

COLUMBUS, Ohio � Second-ranked Cincinnati Archbishop Moeller slugged
12 hits en route to consecutive baseball state championships and a 7-1
victory over No. 17 Cleveland St. Ignatius in the 2013 OHSAA Division I
state championship game Sunday afternoon at Huntington Park.
Moeller (32-2) wins its seventh state baseball championship to tie Newark
Catholic for second place all-time. Newark Catholic won its seventh

game. Both schools trail all-time leader Cincinnati Elder, which has 12
state titles.
The Crusaders collected 12 hits led by senior Max Foley, who went
three-for-four and junior Riley Mahan who added two more hits to the five he
had in the state semifinal victory. Senior Justin Wampler drove in two runs
in the game.
The Wildcats (27-7) could only manage two hits and one run against Moeller
junior left-hander Zach Logue. Allowing his defense to make plays throughout
the course of the game, Logue struck out four Wildcat batters.
St. Ignatius� lone run came on an RBI single by senior Tyler Finkler. The
Wildcats finish as state runners-up for the third time, the last in 2008, in
their 11th state tournament appearance.
St. Ignatius and Moeller previously had met four times in the state
tournament, all semifinal games. The series record began the day at 2-2,
with St. Ignatius victorious in 2000 and 2008 and Moeller in 2004 and 2009.
