The offense came alive in game two, led by a 4-for-5 day by Dylan Tice (Perkasie/Pennridge). The shortstop had a pair of doubles and drove in four runs while scoring another. Chris Calliari (Brockway/Brockway) went 2-for-5 with two runs scored and an RBI while Hunter Bigler (Washington/Trinity) went 1-for-3 with two RBI and two runs scored.
