Parkview’s bid for back-to-back state championships in baseball is alive. Last year’s runner-up, Hillgrove, is out of the way.
Parkview (27-6) took a four-run lead after one inning, got two hits apiece from Edwin Arias, Josh Hart and Matt Olson and beat Hillgrove 8-5 in the deciding third game of a quarterfinal series on the road Wednesday. It was a rematch of the 2011 championship series.

There were some growing pains in the first half of the season, but all three are pitching with confidence now, which makes Oklahoma very dangerous.
The Sooners showed just how dangerous they can be this weekend, sweeping a Baylor team that had carried an 18-0 conference record into the weekend.
