SULPHUR - As the LHSAA baseball State Finals continue into Friday, two Baton Rouge area teams are going home as Champions.

After winning their first games of the series in their respective divisions, U-High fell in game two to Newman, and Dutchtown lost in game two to Sam Houston. Winner-take-all games are set for Saturday.

The Lutcher Bulldogs won game one on Thursday and then took game two 8-3 to defeat Brusly and win the Division II Non-Select title.

Catholic High was in for a crazy night in game two against Brother Martin. With the game tied 2-2 in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Bears had the bases loaded. Jude Schneider looked at a high ball four to be walked. However, the celebration of the should-be win happened too fast, and Schneider never touched first base. As a result, Brother Martin threw him out at first for the game to go into extra innings.

The Bears and Crusaders played nearly 15 full innings before Harrison Kidder hit the walk-off RBI single to right center field for the 3-2 win. Catholic High won their third-straight Division I Select State Championship.
