Elizabethtown senior left fielder Ryan White (Lebanon, PA/Cedar Crest) went 1-for-1 at the plate, drew both of the Blue Jays’ walks in the first game and stole a base. In the second game, Elizabethtown sophomore starting pitcher Sam Heaps (Landenberg, PA/Avon Grove) tossed a six-inning complete game and allowed just four hits, two runs and two walks while striking out three. Shenandoah pitchers Rhys Wolford (Harrisburg, PA/Central Dauphin) and David Frelin (Manassas, VA/Osbourn Park) combined for a four-hit shutout. Elizabethtown senior center fielder Mike Donahue (Hatfield, PA/Lansdale Catholic) hit 2-for-4 in the second game. Shenandoah scored both of its runs in the bottom of the second inning.
