It was a shaky start for American Fork\u2019s defense in Game 2 of the 6A championship series on Saturday. <\/p>

Skyridge had three base hits in the first inning, and the Cavemen\u2019s sophomore pitcher, Cruz Adams, walked another batter as the Falcons scored two runs. <\/p>

The second inning was much of the same, as American Fork had a pair of errors and gave up another run. <\/p>

Thankfully for the Cavemen their offense was having success, and once their defense figured things out, Skyridge was shut out as American Fork won its second consecutive 6A title with a 5-3 victory. <\/p>

\u201cOnce (Adams) started picking up the tempo, our defense started to click,\u201d said American Fork head coach Jarod Ingersoll. \u201cIt all starts with the guy on the bump, and he did a hell of a job today, so we\u2019re super proud of him.\u201d<\/p>

Offensively, it all started with leadoff hitter Bode Gaggero. In his first two at-bats, Gaggero had two home runs and tallied three RBIs. <\/p>

An RBI triple from Talon Willardson gave the Cavemen a 4-3 lead, which they never gave up.<\/p>

\u201cThe championship, every game is going to be close,\u201d Gaggero said. \u201cIt\u2019s hard to blow teams out like that…<\/p>

\u201cI just did my job, trusted my teammates, try to get the next guy in the bat.\u201d<\/p>

Miles Robinson, Rip Roberts and Zayden Bye all pulled in runs for Skyridge, but after the second inning, Adams and the American Fork defense gave up only two base hits. <\/p>

\u201cI don\u2019t know why I usually give up three in the first couple of innings,\u201d Adams said. \u201cI did that against Lehi, and then I settled in…<\/p>

\u201cWe know these guys are after us. We know they\u2019re a solid program, but our motto is \u2018Stick with us, focus on what we got.\u2019 Honestly, with the talent that we have, and incorporating that in us, man, we\u2019re pretty much unstoppable.\u201d<\/p>

Even with the defensively heavy game, American Fork held only a one-run lead through nearly five innings, but senior catcher and BYU commit Cache Poulson put the contest away in the top of the seventh inning when he hit a home run for the 5-3 lead. <\/p>

In four years with American Fork, Poulson has now won three state championships. He\u2019ll be joining the Cougars later this summer. <\/p>

\u201cI\u2019m pumped,\u201d Poulson said. \u201cIt\u2019s going to be a cool experience. I\u2019ll get going here in the summer, just playing games and doing a little summer school. I\u2019m looking forward to the next chapter, but definitely going to miss this and playing with the boys.\u201d<\/p>

Thursday\u2019s championship was the fourth win in six years for American Fork. It was also the sixth championship under Ingersoll. <\/p>

He said it still never gets old. <\/p>

\u201cIt feels better and special, and each one\u2019s a little different,\u201d Ingersoll said. \u201cBut, it\u2019s something that we love in our community, and our school can be really proud of.\u201d<\/p>
