Hidden Valley followed Cave Spring’s run in the top of the first inning with five of their own in the bottom of the frame, as the Titans won the winner-take-all regular season finale 8-2 to capture the River Ridge District title Thursday afternoon at Titan Field.

Hidden Valley pitcher Hayden Smith went the distance for the Titans to gain the win. Nic Ratliff led Hidden Valley with four hits, while Drew Trampe connected on a lead-off single and late-inning homer to pace Hidden Valley.

Cave Spring scored on a Jordan Bryant RBI double in the first and a Steve Klaiber triple, one of his three hits, that led to a Knight run in the fourth.

Both teams earned first-round byes in this week’s River Ridge District tournament in Pulaski.
