Final score Hempfield wins 3-2.

Brayden Hostetter drove in 2 runs with a single in the top of the third inning for Hempfield for the lead score.

They added a third run in the inning on a La Salle College third baseman error to take a 3-0 lead.

In the bottom of the 7th inning Gebhard gave up a lead off double and then proceeded to induce a ground ball out and struck out 2 batters in a row.

This is the 8th state title for L-L League baseball teams in the Lancaster-Lebanon League.
