Knights One Win From State

The Oak Creek Knights defeated South Milwaukee in convincing fashion Friday afternoon, winning 5-1 to advance to the sectional final.

Pitcher Chris Bournelis, a first-team all-conference selection, gave up just one run over seven innings. Oak Creek's two-run fourth inning gave them a cushion it would never relinquish. 

Friday's matchup was delayed by more than three hours due to a morning thunderstorm. The delay forced the sectional final, originally scheduled for Friday afternoon, to be moved to Saturday.

Up next for the Knights is one final showdown with Franklin, which beat Greenfield yesterday. First pitch is scheduled for 10:30 a.m. 

The winner goes on to the state finals next week in Stevens Point.
