Westchester won the City Section Division II championship with a 10-3 victory over Venice at Dodger Stadium.

Josh Gilder hit a two-run home run to left field, Kenny Peoples-Walls had three hits and Andrew Carter drove in three runs. Jamaal Moore (10-1) allowed six hits and struck out five.

It was the second consecutive Division II title for the Comets, who are expected to move up to Division I next season. And based on the fact they have only two seniors on their roster, the Comets might be able to compete.

Both their top pitchers, Moore and Robert Gsellman return, along with Gilder and Peoples-Walls.
