Miles Hoops had three hits for Galesburg, with Jameson Dickerson and Hayden Ralston each having two hits. Ian Leffler and Braley Burford both drove in a pair of runs apiece. Galesburg was held to four hits in the championship match up against Nevada. Galesburg goes (4-1) in the tournament and are now (10-3) overall. After some time off, Post 285 will go to Princeton next Tuesday.
