Having gone two years without winning a state title Hendricken captured its fifth state crown of the current decade as the Hawks completed an undefeated run through the R.I. Interscholastic League playoffs with a 12-10 victory over La Salle in a title-round game of the four-team double elimination championship series yesterday at McCoy Stadium.
The Hawks needed to withstand a spirited seventh inning comeback effort by La Salle yesterday to clinch the title. Trailing 12-6 La Salle scored four runs in the top of the seventh and had the bases loaded when little-used junior reliever Nick Fontaine came on and got the game’s final out with a strikeout. Fontaine was the third Hendricken pitcher in the seventh.
