School’s out for the South Side Beaver Rams; and unfortunately for the baseball team, the magic is out too.

In a showdown of teams bidding for their first PIAA Baseball Championship, it was the Lancaster Catholic Crusaders taking the 3A Crown with a 5-1 victory over South Side at Lubrano Park on the campus of Penn State University.

The Crusaders were led by starting pitcher and Kentucky-bound Dillon Marsh, who had 11 strikeouts over 7 innings, and only allowed 5 hits to the Rams, who didn’t score their lone run until two outs into the 7th.

South Side Beaver finishes their season at 17-6.
