Scranton Prep<\/a> posted their closest win since May 7, 2025 on Thursday. They had just enough and edged out the Valley View Cougars<\/a> 3-1. That result was just more of the same for these two, as the Cavaliers also won the last time the pair played back in May of 2025.<\/p>\n

Gavin Turel<\/a> spent all seven innings on the mound, and it’s clear why: he surrendered a run (which was unearned) on five hits. He has been nothing but reliable: he hasn’t given up more than two walks in four consecutive appearances.<\/p>\n

On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Owen Jeffers<\/a>, who went 3-for-4 with one stolen base, one double, and one RBI. That stolen base marked the first that he has snagged this season.<\/p>\n

The victory made it two in a row for Scranton Prep and bumps their season record up to 2-5. Those wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered a grand total of 1 runs in those games. As for Valley View, they dropped their record down to 0-7 with the loss, which was their fifth straight at home.<\/p>\n

Looking ahead, Scranton Prep will welcome Scranton at 7:00 p.m. on Monday. As for Valley View, they are taking a road trip to square off against Tunkhannock at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday. The Tigers have struggled to contain batters this season (they’ve allowed 13.25 runs per game on average), something the Cougars will no doubt try to take advantage of.<\/p>\n
