Hilo did everything better — hitting, pitching and playing much cleaner defense — to sweep Keaau in the BIIF Division I championship series on Friday night at Wong Stadium.

The Vikings knocked out the Cougars 11-1 in six TKO innings and 14-1, claiming the league title and a spot to the HHSAA state tournament while denying Keaau a historic one.
