Tyrone and Central are an even 5-5 against one another since April of 2018, but likely not for long. The Golden Eagles will head out to take on the Dragons at 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday.

Tyrone came up short against Bishop McCort on Friday, falling 9-1. The match marked the Golden Eagles' lowest-scoring game so far this season.

Tyrone got a good showing from Carter Price, who tossed one inning while giving up no earned runs or hits. That's the first time Price hasn't allowed a single hit since back in May of 2024.

At the plate, Tyrone saw three different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Jon Stroup, who went 1-for-3 with one stolen base.

Meanwhile, Central had already won three in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 10 runs) and they went ahead and made it four on Tuesday. Their pitchers stepped up to hand the Marauders a 14-0 shutout. Considering the Dragons have won three contests by more than nine runs this season, Tuesday's blowout was nothing new.

Coltin Harbaugh looked comfortable as he didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only one hit while striking out six over four innings pitched. He has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than one earned run in three consecutive appearances.

On the hitting side, Wyatt Dilling was a standout: he went 2-for-3 with two stolen bases, four RBI, and one run. That's the most stolen bases he has posted since back in April of 2024. Another player making a difference was Jesse Muthler, who scored two runs and stole a base while going 2-for-3.

Central kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 11 hits. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Bishop Guilfoyle only managed three hits.

Tyrone's loss was their first in the conference, dropping their conference record down to 4-1 and their overall record down to 5-2. As for Central, their record is now 4-1.

Tyrone suffered a grim 11-4 defeat to Central in their previous matchup back in April of 2024. Can the Golden Eagles avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
