Montoursville traveled to Wellsboro on Thursday night for the sectional championship series. Montoursville got off to a fast start with a solo home run over the left field fence. Wellsboro answered, plating two runs – but hurt themselves with costly errors. The rest of the game was a heavy-weight fight, with both teams not backing down. Montoursville put the game away with a two run shot off the bat, claiming victory with a score of 8-7.

The beginning of the second game looked good for Wellsboro as they got off to a great start defensively. But the Montoursville bats were hot, kicking the game off with an early home run. Montoursville continued to pull ahead from there, securing an 11 run lead by the third inning. Wellsboro however did not give up, scoring a run off a solo shot in the bottom of the third. They tried their best defensively, but the bats stayed silent the whole game and Montoursville claimed the sectional championship, defeating Wellsboro 11-1.

Congratulations to the Wellsboro 9 and 10 boys All-Stars. You have so much to be proud of and it has been a great season. Through your hard and dedicated play on the baseball diamond, you inspired us all!
