The win allowed the Hawks to a half-game lead on LaGrange for the fourth and final playoff berth from Region 1-5A. LaGrange’s game against Carver was not played on Monday after the death of Carver coach David Pollard.

Griggs rounded first base and drew a throw from the first baseman toward second base. Manibusan took off for home and beat the throw to the Harris County catcher.
With the loss, Harris County falls to 10-6 in the region, a full game behind Columbus for second place.
