By Mark Carpenter – 

For the first time in 29 seasons, the West Union Dragons baseball squad is basking in the glory of a Southern Hills Athletic Conference championship. With a dominating 15-4 run rule win over the Fayetteville Rockets on Wednesday night, the Dragons clinched outright the SHAC big school title, finishing the regular season with an 11-2 conference mark.

Coach Joe Kramer and his team jumped all over the Rockets early in the clincher, scoring 12 times in their first two at-bats and getting a complete game from southpaw Jared Fenton on the mound.
