Kennard-Dale muffled West York's booming bats on Monday afternoon.

Fortunately for the Bulldogs, however, Kaden Hepler didn't need a lot of support.

Hepler hurled a five-hit shutout to lead West York to a 3-0 victory over the visiting Rams. He struck out five and walked five.

For the season, the hard-throwing Hepler has yet to surrender an earned run in 23 innings pitched. He's allowed just 12 hits, while striking out 32 and walking 10. He's now 4-0 on the season and is a big reason the Bulldogs are 6-1 overall and lead York-Adams Division II at 5-1.

In their previous four games, West York had scored 67 runs. They didn't have nearly that kind of success against K-D's Dakota Baer, who allowed just three runs and seven hits in a complete-game effort.

Collin Crowell and Brandon Kinneman each had two hits for West York. Kinneman drove in a run. Jesse Bortner doubled for the winners.

The Rams fell to 1-6 overall and 1-5 in Division II.
