“It was a good weekend,” said Centerville coach Bill Huisman. “We’re hitting the ball as well as we have all season.”

Des Moines East won the tournament, as the Scarlets took a 25-5 win over Newton in the championship game.

Zach Armington and McCoy each had a double and three RBI for the Reds while Michael Kauzlarich batted 4-for-4 with a double, a triple and four runs scored.
