The Dons will face De La Salle in the final at St. Mary's College at 4 p.m. Saturday.

Amador Valley High knocked off No. 1 seed Granada High in the North Coast Section playoffs Wednesday and will now play for section championship against De La Salle at 4 p.m. at St. Mary's College in Moraga Saturday.

Amador's Nick Carney's hit a grand slam in the fourth inning and the Dons withstood a late Granada comeback to win 9-7.
