There are only four teams still alive in the Ohio Little League State Tournament, and Boardman is one of them.
Gino Beato and Trent Humphreys crushed home runs in the first and second innings as Boardman cruised past Ashtabula 10-1 on Tuesday.
Beato's shot was a two-run job and part of a 3-4 day at the plate.
The Boardman All Stars is battling back through the losers bracket. They will take on the winner of Mt. Vernon/Wheelersburg Wednesday at 2:00.
The 11-12 year olds are seeking a state championship and a berth in the Central Region to take a shot at the Little League World Series in Williamsport, PA.
