Bob and Ann Overbeck, of Effingham, will have a grandson competing in the Illinois Elementary School Association Class 2A State Baseball Tournament this Friday and Saturday.

Jacob Overbeck, the son of Mark Overbeck, was the winning pitcher for the Morris Saratoga Hawks in the sectional championship at home. The Hawks won in five innings via the 10-run rule over Joliet St. Raymond, 12-0 last Saturday.

The Hawks are 20-0 on the season and will face Staunton at noon Saturday at Eastside Centre in East Peoria, the same state tournament Teutopolis will be competing in against Glasford Illini Bluffs at 2:30 p.m.
