Scranton Prep posted their closest win since May 7, 2025 on Thursday. They had just enough and edged out the Valley View Cougars 3-1. That result was just more of the same for these two, as the Cavaliers also won the last time the pair played back in May of 2025.
Gavin Turel spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered a run (which was unearned) on five hits. He has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't given up more than two walks in four consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Owen Jeffers, who went 3-for-4 with one stolen base, one double, and one RBI. That stolen base marked the first that he has snagged this season.
The victory made it two in a row for Scranton Prep and bumps their season record up to 2-5. Those wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered a grand total of 1 runs in those games. As for Valley View, they dropped their record down to 0-7 with the loss, which was their fifth straight at home.
Looking ahead, Scranton Prep will welcome Scranton at 7:00 p.m. on Monday. As for Valley View, they are taking a road trip to square off against Tunkhannock at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday.
