A Bulldogs' error broke a 5-5 tie in fourth inning to help Van Buren pull out the home victory.

The Pointers (18-5, 9-5) scored in each of the first five innings. They led 3-1 before Fayetteville (16-13, 11-3) erupted for a four-run third inning that was highlighted by a two-run double by Garrett Williams and RBI singles by Barrett Banister and Quin Rudzinski.

Banister and Hayes Cox each were 2-for-3 and Rudzinski drove in two runs for the Bulldogs, which clinched the 7A-West Conference title with a 10-0 win over Van Buren on Monday.

Jeremiah Douglas and Ethan Rauser each had two hits for the Pointers and freshman Dakota Peters drove in two runs. Sophomore Trevor Johnson picked up the win after pitching a two-hit shutout over the final 4 1/3 innings.
