Devon Prep is preparing for their first conference matchup of the season on Wednesday. They will hit the road for the first time this season to challenge the Conwell-Egan Catholic Eagles at 4:00 p.m. Conwell-Egan Catholic took a loss in their last matchup and will be looking to turn the tables on Devon Prep, who comes in off a win.
Devon Prep is headed out to face Conwell-Egan Catholic after opening their season at home and giving their fans just what they were looking for. The Tide came out on top against Haverford School by a score of 4-1 on Friday. Give some credit to the fans of both teams: the last four times they've met, the home team has come away the winner.
Liam Jung looked comfortable as he struck out seven batters over four innings while giving up just one earned run off three hits.
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Alex Hannah, who went 2-for-3 with one triple, one stolen base, and one RBI. The team also got some help courtesy of Billy Degler, who went 1-for-2 with two runs and one stolen base.
Meanwhile, Conwell-Egan Catholic started off well but failed to capitalize on an early lead against Germantown Academy. They fell just short of the Patriots by a score of 6-4 on Thursday. For those keeping track at home, that's the closest defeat the Eagles have suffered since April 10, 2025.
Brady Guzzie was huge no matter where he played even without the win. He struck out six batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit (and not a single walk). What's more, he gave up only zero walks, the fewest he's had since back in April of 2025. He was also solid in the batter's box, going 2-for-3 with two doubles, two RBI, and one run.
Devon Prep came out on top in a nail-biter against Conwell-Egan Catholic in their previous meeting back in April of 2025, sneaking past 5-4. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Tide since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
