History made Friday night

Not many people were on hand to witness history at Penn State's Medlar Field on Friday.



Conestoga and Spring-Ford, a pair of District 1 teams, played a 10-inning game in the PIAA Class AAAA final. Prior to that game, there had never been a PIAA baseball final go into double-digit innings.


Conestoga ultimately won the game, 6-3, when the Pioneers scored three runs in the top of the 10th and held the Rams scoreless in the bottom half. The official game time was 2 hours, 58 minutes.


It was Conestoga's first state baseball title. Earlier in the day, Northern (Class AAA) and Serra Catholic (A) won their first state baseball titles.
