Pirates players celebrate their series win over the Stamford Bulldogs, earning the chance to defend their crown in the 2A Division II State Championship game against the Overton Mustangs on Thursday.

The Collinsville Pirates baseball team is sailing back to Round Rock after sweeping the Stamford Bulldogs in the state semifi nals two games to none May 29.

The Pirates pounced on their opponent early and never relented, winning both games with the final score of 6-1.

“In the first game, we played pretty well,” Collinsville head baseball coach Derrick Jenkins said. “We played defense and [Garrett] Trevino pitched well. … Game 2, we left a lot of guys on base and had a few guys thrown out, but that's what we do. We're going to play aggressive the whole time, so we're trying to score six to eight runs a game. We did those things, ended up winning 6-1 and moved on.”
