Gavin Myers threw all seven innings and allowed just one unearned run as the Starfires beat Blackford 3-1 Wednesday night on the road.
While he walked five, he only allowed five hits and struck out three, leaving the South Adams pitching staff at full strength for their showdown with Adams Central Thursday night on WZBD.
Owen Wanner was 2 for 4 for the visitors and Kyle Minger continued to scorch the ball, finishing 1 for 3 with two runs scored.
Brady Beall was 3 for 3 on the night.
