Tokaidai Sagami of Kanagawa used home runs and strong pitching to defeat Kyushu Kokusaidai Fuzoku of Fukuoka 6-1 in the final of the National High School Invitational baseball tournament. It was the second championship for the winners, and the first time the Fukuoka nine had appeared in the finals. There was speculation that the tournament would be canceled after the March 11 earthquake, but it was played as scheduled. The opening ceremony and the bleacher cheering routines were simplified, however.
