Durant Thomas Rally Seals State Semipro Title For Durant
Durant's Riggy Thomas came in relief to pitch seven and a third strong innings as Lawton Lawton Pepsis fell 7-4 in the National Baseball Congress state tournament final. Thomas, facing a 4-1 deficit, allowed only two baserunners after the third, fanned 14, and secured Durant’s first state crown in five years, ending Lawton’s opening-round dominance. The Pepsis built a 4-1 lead behind Steve Prestidge and Hamilton, but Thomas quieted their bats with a sharp curve and steady defense to clinch the championship before a large crowd.
