That’s Old Mill’s Xander Waddell under the pile of teammates after the Patriots beat Sherwood, 4-3, for the Maryland 4A state title on Waddell’s ninth-inning single. 2 Sherwood in nine innings in the Maryland 4A baseball championship game at Ripken Stadium. Old Mill (17-8), which had a walk-off win over Whitman in the semifinals, tied the game in the seventh. Waddell has dreamed about winning the state title since his freshman year, and the senior was up to the moment. The Maryland Eastern Shore commit drove the ball to left field, and Mondragon trotted home to secure Old Mill’s 12th consecutive win.
