    It wasn’t an easy Division I select regional round best-of-three series for No. 8 John Curtis. The Patriots squeaked by ninth-seeded Rummel on a walk-off base hit in Thursday’s Game 1. Curtis then needed a late-inning home run off the bat of designated hitter Kolston Martinez to give the team the cushion it needed to put away the Raiders 4-2 in Game 2 Friday night at Harahan Playground in a contest that was delayed by more than an hour because of lightning.
