BEARVILLE — Pierce County rode the combined twohit pitching effort of three pitchers to complete a perfect Region 3-AA run here Friday in a 9-2 victory over visiting Cook.

Brantley Willis hurled four innings of two-hit ball, allowing two runs, one earned, with two strikeouts and a walk. Kolton Brogdon (one inning) and Emmitt Hall (two innings) followed with three shutout innings of no-hit ball. Both Brogdon and Hall hit a batter.

The second-ranked Bears (21-3 overall, 12-0 region), winners of 14 straight, finished off its first unbeaten region mark since posting a 19-0 record during a 28-4 campaign in 2014-15, which included an 18-game winning streak.
