The Royals took the lead by scoring three runs in the top of the fifth but the Athletics' answered with three of their own knotting the game in the bottom of the inning. Bear River scored two in the top of the sixth, the rally was led by Mathew Dalbon and Knox held the home team scoreless in the bottom half for the win.
Leading the way at the plate for Bear River were Tidd and Kadin Dooley.
