Jim Thorpe-Williams Vy.

Williams Valley pushed across a run in the bottom of the eighth inning to pull out a 6-5 non-league victory over Jim Thorpe.

After a one-out walk to Ulsh and a sacrifice bunt, Cole singled to center to deliver the game-winning run.

The Olympians - who had tied the game in the seventh to force extra innings - nearly scored in the top of the eighth on Tanner Yurchak’s base hit, but the Vikings threw out a runner at the plate.

Yurchak had three hits in the contest, which was the completion of a suspended game, while Nik Schwartz finished with two. Thorpe’s Jack Edwards added a hit and two RBIs. James Lordi reached base three times on a hit and two walks, and also scored a run.

The gap between the start of the game and Tuesday’s resumption allowed Williams Valley Shadle to throw all eight innings and finish with 120 pitches. He walked five and struck out eight.

The loss ended the Olympians’ regular season with a 10-10 record, while the Vikings closed at 7-13.
