Post 13 advances; Grant wins Fairmont 10K
Clarksburg Post 13 moved within one game of the state tournament with a 5-4 win over Morgantown Post 2.
Jeff Straface's two-out single in the bottom of the eighth scored Craig Kelley and broke a 4-4 tie. Jeremy Wright pitched the final two innings to pick up the win.
"Once again this team showed they are battlers," Post 13 coach Pat Secret said. "This has been a real good tournament, and I think when the kids got the No. 1 seed, it made them want to play like that."
Wright homered twice for Post 13, including a two-run shot in the first to give Clarksburg a 2-1 lead. Wright led off the third with a solo home run that gave Clarksburg a 4-1 lead.
Straface added two hits for Clarksburg, and teammate Kurt Skasik was 2-for-4 with one run scored.
Clarksburg faces the winner of Fairmont and Morgantown today at 1 p.m. at Anker Field in Morgantown. In the event of a Clarksburg loss, a second game will be played immediately following the first game.
Derek Clark of Albright captured the 22nd Annual Monongahela Valley Bank 10K run, while Fairmont's Jonathan Wright won the 5K event.
Clark finished with a time of 36:29. Buckhannon's Joe Dean (36:32) was second and Justin Simpson of Chester was third (36:50). Morgantown's Heather Bury was sixth overall at 38:38 and the first female to cross the finish line. Elkins' Rebecca Schoonover was second in the women's division at 41:08, while Cedarville's Sherry Carr-Smith was third at 47:52.
In the 5K, Wright won with a time of 17:09, followed by Morgantown's E.J. Linger (17:21) and Weston's Murshid Latif (17:48).
Morgantown's Erin O'Reilly won the women's 5K at 19:26 and finished 13th overall. Ruth Riemenschneider of Winchester, Va. was second in the women's division (20:30), while Elkins' Ryann Metheny was third (20:44).
