Tne WIO gives the Marauders, under first-year head coach Jared Stewart. their second straight Ohio Division championship. Meigs finishes the season with a 14-8 mark overall and a I I -5 mark in the Ohio Division. The Marauders had already d10chcd a t1c for the crown. Nel sonville· York could have stayed alive in the title hunt with a win. But the Buckeyes would have had to win two srraight make-up games to finish the season tied with Meigs. Since Nel sonville-York lost to the Marauders, it is unlikely that those two games will be made up since they will have no bearing on the title. Meigs scored three runs in the first innin,g.

Meigs regained the lead in the th1rd mning, Shannon Price reached on 'a Me1gs error. stole second and th1rd and scored on a passed ball to make 114-3. Meigs increased the lead to 6-3 in the fifth inning when Price once again reached on an error ~nd scored when Wiiliam,s tripled to deep center field. Williams then scored on a ground out off the bat of Stephanie Wigal. Meigs scored three more runs in the sixth inning to end the scoring.
