Hornets' Season Ends with Defeat at Coca-Cola Park

In a battle of pitching in which the Emmaus Green Hornets fell short, the Nazareth Blue Eagles defeated the Hornets 4-0 to win the District XI Class 4A baseball championship Wednesday night at Coca-Cola Park..

Led by the overpowering performance of pitcher Karl Keglovits, the Blue Eagles kept the bats of the Emmaus players silent, while Logan Mondschein, the Hornet's starting pitcher, struggled early. The Blue Eagles capitalized and brought two players across home plate in the first inning.

Dave Pisauro, the Hornet's relief pitcher, gave up two more Blue Eagle runs in the second inning.

Pisauro was able to keep Nazareth players from reaching home plate the rest of the game, but it was Keglovits who kept the Emmaus hitters guessing throughout the night, allowing only four hits and no runs.

Nazareth's season will continue next week as they head to the PIAA tournament, which begins Monday.
