Wellsboro baseball edges Mansfield.

Wellsboro scored nine runs in the first inning, but Mansfield came back, forcing extra innings on Friday.

In the eighth inning the Green Hornets came through again, coming away with a 10-9 win.

In the bottom of the eighth with a 2-2 count and the bases loaded and Larry Walters at the plate Wellsboro did the safety squeeze play, scoring Nick Tremper for the walk-off win.

"It was a typical rivalry game, both teams played hard," Wellsboro coach Philip Prough said. "One takes a big early lead, the other scraps back and that's what you expect from a rival game. Mansfield played hard, they didn't roll over and quit. In the bottom of the eighth inning with J.P. Shaw, who is a really good pitcher, we were patient and resilient enough to give ourselves a chance to win in extra innings.

"I'm proud of our kids for our comeback and a win in a big rival game."

The win was the 50th of Prough's coaching career.

Tremper was 3-for-4 with three RBI and two runs scored and Johnny Rowland had two hits and he scored a run.

Dawson Prough had a double and Dalton Prough and Walters each had hits.

Joe Allen pitched 5 2/3 innings and Dawson Prough pitched 2 1/3. The two combined to strike out five.

Levi Adams worked 2/3 of an inning, Derrick Herbst pitched 1/3 of an inning, Hillson pitched five scoreless innings and Shaw pitched two innings.
