Deoksu High School, a prestigious high school baseball powerhouse, reclaimed the throne at the President's Cup National High School Baseball Tournament after 17 years.

On the 30th at Pohang Stadium in Gyeongbuk, Deoksu High School defeated Yusin High School 7-4 in an extended 10-inning tiebreaker in the final of the 60th President's Cup National High School Baseball Tournament.

Following the Shinsegae E-Mart Cup National High School Baseball Tournament in April, they lifted their second national tournament championship trophy of the year.

Although Deoksu High School is known as a baseball powerhouse, their President's Cup championship dates back 17 years. It was their third overall title, following back-to-back championships in 2008-2009.

Trailing 0-1, Deoksu High School hit three infield singles in the top of the 2nd inning and took advantage of an opponent error to score 3 points and reverse the score. In the top of the 3rd inning, Lee Yun-jae's right-field RBI single extended their lead to 4-2.

However, they allowed one run each in the bottom of the 4th and 5th innings, tying the game, and unable to decide the winner during regulation innings, the game went to extra innings.

In the extended tiebreaker, Deoksu High School smiled. In the top of the 10th inning, following Shim Geon-woo's RBI single and an opponent error, Cho Won-bin's additional RBI single added 3 more runs.

In the bottom of the 10th inning, the defense did not allow any runs, securing the championship.

The standout of this tournament was catcher Seol Jae-min. He swept the most RBIs, most hits, and most home runs awards of the tournament, and in the final game, he went 3-for-5 with 1 RBI and 1 run scored, earning him the tournament's Most Valuable Player (MVP) award.

Eom Jun-sang, who signed with Major League Baseball's Arizona Diamondbacks in June for a signing bonus of 1.5 million dollars (approximately 2.151 billion won), also contributed at the plate with 2 hits in 4 at-bats, and as a pitcher, he took the mound as the fourth pitcher and pitched 2 innings with 1 hit allowed, 1 walk, 5 strikeouts and no runs, earning him the winning pitcher of the final game.
