OXFORD–A dramatic finish in Oxford end in defeat for Unadilla Valley and a save for the Blackhawk Kyle Crawford.

The Storm’s starter, Mason Alford, lead off the bottom of the seventh; down two, with a single.

Catcher Andrew Radke followed suit and after an Austin Taylor walk, the bases were loaded without an out.

When Brendan Brooker hit a medium range fly ball into center field, nobody though that it was the beginning of the end for UV... except for Cameron Heggie.

The Oxford center-fielder made and incredible catch and fired the baseball to senior catcher Matt Moore for a very close second out at the plate.

Closer Kyle Crawford worked Connor Pope into a ground out shortly after and the cold, rainy game had ended.

“The parity in the MAC this year is pretty decent... anybody can beat anybody. I take my hat off to Oxford,” said Unadilla Valley varsity baseball head coach Gary Alford.

Oxford plays Afton at home today and Unadilla Valley is at home against Deposit.
