Your 2026 Rural Baseball Champions are the Union County Fightin' Tigers!

The Final: UC 10, Trenton 9 in an eight-inning classic at Hammond Stadium. And the Fightin' Tigers win their first title since 2012.

Fast forward to the seventh inning. Trenton was one out away from winning, but Union County showcased its resilience, plating three runs to tie it at 9 and forcing extras.

In the bottom of the 8th, The Fightin' Tigers loaded the bases, and a sacrifice fly by Kendall Carter gave senior Wesley Crockett a chance, and slides headfirst to a state title.

Story coming soon. Highlights at 11 are only seen on TV20. Jake Rongholt - WCJB Sports
