``Once it's do or die, there's no margin for error,'' shortstop Tyler Dersom said. ``We screwed up.''

``It's not that he (Tomarelli) had anything overpowering. It's not that he had anything special,'' Chaminade catcher Ryan Hamill said. ``We just didn't do anything. We didn't show what we could do.''

Since early March, when he made the decision to have Chaminade play in Division III, Eagles coach Scott Drootin has known that the Comanches would be the main obstacle to to any championship.

``We couldn't handle them,'' Drootin said. ``They kept us off balance and we didn't have timely hitting.''

The Eagles were held hitless for 4-1/3 innings. Even their best offensive player, Hamill, couldn't figure out how to deal with Tomarelli. Hamill, the area leader with 16 home runs, struck out once and popped out in two weak plate appearances against Tomarelli.

``They're one of the best teams we've played all year,'' Hamill said. ``But if we had an on day, we could have beaten them.''

The Eagles will most remember a season in which they established themselves as a program on the rise. They won their first Mission League title and could win many more in the years ahead. They're loaded with top young players.
