For the first time this season, Midd-West will have a chance to prove themselves in a conference matchup. They are taking a road trip to take on the Montoursville Warriors at 4:30 p.m. on Monday.
Midd-West came into their game on Friday off a hard-fought close win, but unfortunately suffered a serious change of fortune. They came up short against Warrior Run, falling 10-0.
Meanwhile, Montoursville took care of business in their home opener (and then some) on Thursday. They never let Lewisburg get on the board and left with a 12-0 victory. The win continues a trend for the Warriors in their matchups with the Green Dragons: they've now won six in a row.
Brayden McCourt made a big impact while hitting and pitching. He struck out six batters over two innings while giving up no earned runs or hits (and not a single walk). McCourt was also stellar in the batter's box, scoring two runs and stealing a base while going 1-for-2.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Royce Bowes, who scored two runs while going 2-for-4.
Montoursville always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .516. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Lewisburg only posted an OBP of .167.
Midd-West might still be hurting after the 17-7 defeat they got from Montoursville in their previous meeting back in April of 2024. Can Midd-West avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
