Three straight 5A state baseball championships for St. Thomas Aquinas under head coach Rick Sabath.

The Saints continued their dynasty Saturday with a 4-0 victory over Shawnee Heights behind another dominant pitching performance and timely hitting at Eck Stadium.

Saint Thomas Aquinas used a combined shutout from Lincoln Boyle and James Forgy to secure the title. Boyle was outstanding in the start, allowing just one hit over four scoreless innings while striking out seven. Forgy closed the door with three shutout innings in relief as the Saints captured their third consecutive state championship.

Aquinas struck first in the second inning when Tommy Costello delivered an RBI single. The Saints added insurance throughout the game while their pitching staff never allowed Shawnee Heights to gain momentum offensively.

The bottom of the Aquinas lineup proved critical. Costello, Jett Wood and Luke Bernhardt combined for four hits, two runs and two RBIs. Wood finished with two hits, while Costello drove in two runs.

Cambren Floberg battled on the mound for Shawnee Heights, allowing three runs over five innings with four strikeouts. Cayden Lindsay and Jackson Hayes each recorded hits for the Thunderbirds.

Under longtime head coach Rick Sabath, Aquinas continues to cement itself as one of the premier baseball programs in Kansas, now winning three consecutive 5A state championships.
