That includes a Class 4A semifinal matchup between the winner of No. 1 Greensburg Salem (14-2) and No. 9 New Castle (9-9), who on Monday played 10 innings of scoreless baseball before the game was suspended for darkness. The winner of that game will play No. 4 Blackhawk (15-4) at 1:30 p.m. Wednesday at Shaler.
