After a 4-3 regular season loss to Clear Fork (17-8) on Monday, the Ontario baseball team stands at 25-3 overall.  The loss really didn't mean much in the standings as it was a non-league match.  The Warriors had already won the North Central Conference with a 12-1 mark after splitting a pair with Galion last week.  If anything the game with the Colts was good tournament prep as Ontario heads to Heidelberg in Tiffin, Ohio on Thursday to take on 14-12 Oak Harbor out of the Sandusky Bay Conference in the Division III district semifinal at 5pm.

The Rockets also fell on Monday night to conference rival and state ranked Sandusky Perkins 6-1.  Oak Harbor earned their way to the D-III district semifinal by downing Western Reserve 5-4 last Wednesday.  The Rockets used two pitchers to knock the Rough Riders out of the tournament starter AJ Cecil and reliever Brandon Uher.  Cecil went five and two thirds innings giving up three runs on four hits and struck out five with two walks.  Uher went an inning and a third giving up a run on two hits without a walk.  On offense, Oak Harbor scattered six hits but no batter in the Rockets lineup had anymore than just one.

Should Ontario win on Thursday, they'll face the winner of the first game played that day at 2pm between Wynford and Edison.  The Warriors have already beaten the Royals twice this season in NCC play, while it was Edison a year ago that knocked Ontario out of the baseball tournament in the D-III district semi after the Warriors went into the game undefeated and ranked number one in the state in Division III by the Ohio Associated Press and had been awarded a state poll championship.
