Watch: Walk-off single lifts Hawaii to LLWS title over Curacao

Hawaii capped off a dominant run to the Little World Series title on Sunday, knocking off Curacao 13-3 in four innings. 

Kama Angell won it for Hawaii, hitting an RBI single, driving in Ruston Hiyoto clinching the championship via the 10-run rule. 

Angell finished the day 4-for-4 with 6 RBI off two singles, a double, and a home run. 

In the bottom of the first inning, Angell and Kekoa Payanal helped set the tone, smashing back-to-back long balls. 

On the mound, Jaron Lancaster went 4.0 innings, allowing three runs off three hits while striking out ten. 

Hawaii displayed its dominance throughout the tournament, outscoring their opponents 60-5. For Hawaii, it's their fourth Little League title and first since 2018. 

"We're fortunate that everything clicked at the right moment," Hawaii manager Gerald Oda said after the game. "I'm very grateful that these kids played loose and relaxed."
