Two blue bloods locked up in an old fashion pitcher’s duel on Wednesday.
Panther Valley wasn’t giving sway and the same could be said for Tamaqua.
It was pretty to watch, and the way the game is meant.
April 25, 1968 - Bob Polinsky pitches a one-hitter to help Panther Valley gain a North Schuylkill League victory over Schuylkill Haven. The game is scoreless through four innings until Jim Secara sing.
The upstarts were looking to pull the upset.
But favored Marian wasn’t in any mood to oblige.
Weatherly showed early that it wasn’t shying away from the Fillies’ Morgan Kelly - one of the best pitcher.
Tamaqua baseball standout Mason Ligenza brought his A-game Monday afternoon.
The University of Pittsburgh commit was nothing short of stellar on the bump in the Raiders’ 8-3 Schuylkill League victory .
They are rare sights, and often unlikely occurrences.
But they are circumstances and situations that both the Panther Valley and Marian track and field teams have had to navigate.
Both schools opera.
