The Tribunes (24-16) trailed 4-1 entering the top of the eighth before scoring six to go up 7-4. Monroe then added three more insurance runs in the ninth.
Tournament Most Valuable Pitcher Pat Corrigan earned his third win in as many days, tossing 3 2/3 scoreless innings in relief.
Tournament MVP Olivier Bertrand capped a brilliant weekend with a hit and two runs scored. Ronnie Stout was 3-for-5 with four RBIs and Mike Tomeno had a hit and two RBIs. Both Stout and Tomeno were named to the All-Tournament team.
The Tribunes will play in a district tournament in two weeks. Opponents and location are to be determined.
