It isn't often that an American Legion Baseball pitcher hurls his way to throwing a no-hitter.  That's what makes Max Henry's start to the season almost unprecedented.  The Latrobe pitcher has thrown two consecutive games without surrendering a hit to the opposition.  

In two complete game outings this year, totaling fifteen innings, the Jethawks' ace has struck out an eye-popping ...

The following is an article written by Kevin Manero, the head coach of the Nor-Gwyn Hawks of the Bux-Mont League in southeastern PA's Region 2.  Kevin has been at the helm for one of PA's most successful teams for nearly a decade.  He managed the 2005 state champions and continues to produce quality teams and players that are always in the hunt for another state title.  

On Saturday evening before the commencement of a Bux-Mont League game against Perkiomen, Nor-Gwyn will pay homage to longtime Perkiomen manager Ernie Quatrani.  Coach Quatrani managed the Perkiomen legion team for twenty-four successful seasons before retiring last summer.

The tribute will take place at Hostelley Field before the 7pm game.  While you're there you can take in some of the...

In PA's Region 3, no team is off to a better league start than Bristol in the Lower Bucks League.  They knocked off Bensalem by four and won a couple close games against Yardley-Morrisville.

Things didn't go quite as well for Falls this weekend.  Despite throwing up twenty-eight runs in two weekend games against foes from New Jersey, the Region 3 natives were unable to come away with a ...

Nor-Gwyn took part in a doubleheader in York County yesterday against a couple non-league opponents.  In the first game, the Hawks downed Penn Manor of the Lancaster County League.  Nor-Gwyn won it by five, 9-4, with the big bat being swung by Nate Sellers who's two run homerun sealed the victory for the Region 2 team.

In the second game of their day, Nor-Gwyn and Southwestern of the Yo...

As is generally the case this time of year, many high school teams across the state are still competing in the PIAA playoffs.  As such, many early season legion games have been postponed to later dates. 

We'll post as many legion scores as possible once the games resume.

Clearfield and Punsutawney kicked off their seasons on Sunday afternoon with their Jefferson County League opener.  Braedon Pennington paced the home team on the mound, pitching all seven innings for the win.  He surrendered just four hits and three earned runs while striking out fourteen in what will surely be one of the top strikeout performances the state will see this year.

Andrew R...

Boyertown was able to take advantage of eleven Doylestown walks and three errors, as the Bears downed the Tigers 7-6 in non-league play at Bear Stadium on Saturday night.  Ben Tracy took the loss in relief for Doylestown, pitching 1 1/3 innings and giving up the Bears’ final two runs. Tracy struck out two Boyertown hitters, but yielded five walks in his time on the mound, including four in the final frame.  Travis Kreitz picked up the win by pitching...

After three years without fielding a team in the Indiana County League, Blairsville will return this year to league play.  Blairsville's addition means there will be a six team field this season in Indiana County.  This is great news for the league, as it looks to build on a successful 2010 campaign.  Last year's league champion Homer City had great success at the regional level, finishing second in Region Seven to champion and perennial power State Colleg...
